In life we have little luxuries that make all the difference -  the fabulous soap that transforms your bath into a day spa experience,  a T shirt so soft it is just a whisper on your skin, and a salad dressing that makes a leap past oil and vinegar. 

Organicville is an all organic line that qualifies as a little luxury that gives you a big return.  The Frugal Diva wants to eat salads all the time however The Frugal Dude wants them to be different and interesting.  Enter Organicville Miso Ginger Vinaigrette – organic, gluten free, and sweetened with agave.  At $3.69 this gives you the opportunity to turn 8 salads into superstars.   Part of Frugal Diva thinking is that the whole is cheaper then the sum of its parts. In other words, if I had to buy miso which I rarely use, ginger that has to be pealed and pureed, and agave sweetener this salad dressing would cost a whole more more. 

Miso Ginger adds a shot of flavor turning a salad into an Asian entree.  With either some left over chicken or cubed tofu, this qualifies as a quick, light meal on a hot summer night.
