Sweet and Tangy Salad Dressing

The fiancee and I whipped up a really delicious salad tonight, and although I couldn't find a camera before we wolfed it down, I did manage to find one in time to take a picture of the homemade dressing.
C'mon, when was the last time you ate a salad for dinner? It's high time you start eating better.

Makes about 3-4 large servings

Ingredients (Salad)
  • 1 head of lettuce
  • 1 small head of broccoli
  • 1/2 green pepper
  • 1/4 small yellow onion
  • 1 leftover chicken breast
  • Bacos
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Cheddar cheese
Ingredients (Dressing)
  • 3/4 of that same yellow onion
  • 2/3 c sugar
  • 2/3 c veggie oil
  • 2/3 c apple cider vinegar (or regular vinegar will work too)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
Directions
  1. Chop up all ingredients for your salad and stick it all in a big bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, chop up the yellow onion into tiny pieces, and combine that, along with the rest of the ingredients and stir.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad as needed--you won't need all the dressing, so you can stick the rest in a container for later.
