Happy National Orange Juice Day

Today is National Orange Juice Day. A time to honor our citrus growers and the wonderful, healthy drink we like to refer to as "o.j.". How about helping out our growers by picking up some o.j. today ~ whether it be generic or brand name, as long as it is grown and packaged in the good ole' USA, you'll be helping our growers. To get you motivated, here's a great recipe for some citrus-ey salad dressing:

Orange Balsamic Dressing

3/4 cup orange juice
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
3 tbsp orange zest
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp cumin
1/2 cup olive oil

Put all ingredients in a jar, add lid ~ Shake to mix well.
Perfect on a spinach/fruit salad with a little red onion. Note: if you like a thicker dressing, simply add less o.j.

Enjoy and thank you orange growers!
