Lemon Vinaigrette Dressing

I use this for the spinach orzo salad

1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 heads of roasted garlic
3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lemon juiced

Preheat oven to 375 degrees, take a two heads of garlic (one can never have too much roasted garlic), chop off the top and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Wrape heads in foil, place on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes until soft. In a food processor, combine vinegar, salt, honey and garlic, puree. While food processor is still running, add olive oil and lemon juice. Adjust lemon juice, honey and salt to taste. Refrigerate until ready to use
