Balsamic Vinaigrette

My previous favorite salad was the Cobb salad but it is too much work for me to make myself so I'll just order that at restaurants. This is a simple sweet salad with a balsamic vinaigrette. My current favorite.
 Yield: 1 cup

Cook time: 2-3 minutes

Ingredients:
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons dark brown sugar, optional*
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup olive oil

Directions:
Place everything in a bowl or a container with a lid. Whisk or shake! Easy!

I enjoyed it over a bed of mix greens with goat cheese, strawberries, avocados, and raisins. Most restaurants I've noticed added a type of nut in there too.
