Secret Ingredient: Raspberry Jam in my Raspberry Viniagrette

During the coldest months of the year, I crave fresh fruits. Raspberries are among my favorite fresh fruits because they are available all year long and they are always plump, juicy and refreshing. One of my favorite ways to serve raspberries in the winter is in a fresh crisp green salad. My Raspberry Mustard Vinaigrette has a secret ingredient: seedless raspberry jam!

My recipe is for 2 servings of salad, but can easily be doubled or tripled to serve 4 or 6.
