Simple ingredients. Something special.
Some of my favorite recipes are the simplest ones. This ginger salad dressing is one of them.
It’s fresh, flavorful, and made with ingredients that work beautifully together. I can’t take much credit for it. The truth is, God created the ingredients—I simply discovered a way to combine them.

Build your favorite salad.
Jake starts with spring mix and adds slivered green peppers, red or purple onion, fresh garlic, chopped green onions, cherry tomatoes, finely shredded cheese and roasted pecans.
Use more of what you love and less of what you don’t. Toss in the dressing just before serving.
The perfect finish to a fall day.
My favorite time to enjoy this salad is after a long walk with my wife, Ann Marie. There’s something special about crunching through fallen leaves, enjoying fresh air, and then sitting down to a meal made with simple ingredients.
Life moves quickly. Take the walk. Enjoy the salad. Hug the people you love. Stay curious. Keep exploring. And never stop appreciating the remarkable world God has created around us.
