This is a very late Mystery Ingredient Challenge recipe. I apologise for its lateness but due to illness and a hectic schedule (believe me that is a rarity! lol) I ran behind on all kitchen stuff.

Tri Pepper Dressing |
My mystery ingredient last Wednesday was the very pretty Pink Peppercorns. They should be in your spice rack if only for the fact that they look great there. lol. I love pepper and use it a lot but oddly had not used the Pink kind before. So when I was given my mystery ingredient, I set about looking for inspiration to create a new recipe. But then I found the perfect recipe already created by Susan V of FatFreeVegan.com so I printed off the recipe and my mind was set that I would try her recipe. Then I got sick...

Are they not pretty?? lol |

It was whilst I was reading Susan's blog for this recipe that I learnt they aren't peppercorns but seeds? But they sure do pack a kick like a peppercorn. lol. I finally got around to trying the recipe out last night and I had to sub Chia seed for Flax seed but other than that I stuck to the recipe.

For the recipe click on the link above and I suggest you read the entire blog as Susan has included some other salad dressings that look great and I intend on trying.

As good a close up as I could get folks...but it doesn't do it justice! |

The results was a really good dressing. It was easy to put together and I made it the night before I needed it. There was a little shock on my part when I came to use it today as it had separated a lot...so much so I jumped on to Susan's site and asked if I had messed it up but was reassured that it does do that. But I confess by that point I had shaken it up and used it on my lunch time salad. It was thinner than my usual dressings...but delicious and I will be making it again. Once again...thanks Susan V...and if you like pepper...please try this dressing.
