Jam Jar Vinaigrette

This sweet-tart dressing is perfect to make when you have a little bit of jam left in the jar.  It is especially good on a salad of mixed greens, fresh fruit and toasted pecans.

Mix together in jam jar:

1  part jam (I really like raspberry or strawberry, but any fruit flavor is good)

1  part red wine vinegar

2  parts  olive oil

Cover jar with lid and shake ingredients until well blended; add salt and pepper to taste, if desired.  Obviously, quantities vary depending on ingredients used;  2 T each of jam and vinegar combined with 1/4 c  oil will yield about 1/2 c vinaigrette, or enough for 4 salads.  Refrigerate any leftover dressing.
