Strawberries just taste better in an adorable compote dish. I found some super cute compote dishes here, here and here.
The flavors of the pear balsamic vinegar and the lemon olive oil is amazing together. You truly won’t go back to store bought salad dressings after tasting this. I couldn’t find the exact brand that I use, but get a Meyer Lemon Olive oil here. and D’Anjou Pear Balsamic Vinegar here.
