Herb Wine Marinade

Note from Cheri: This versatile marinade can be used with most any kind of food. Use white wine for chicken, fish or vegetables. Use red wine for beef, lamb or even venison. I especially like to use the marinade with food that is going to be grilled over an open flame. Want to lower the fat and calorie content? use a higher ratio of wine to oil. Don't be afraid to play with the recipe.

3/4 cup red or white (depending on what you're using the marinade on)wine 2/3 cup olive oil 1/3 cup red or white wine vinegar 1 T garlic, minced or pressed 2 T chopped fresh basil 2 tsp. fresh oregano 3-4 sprigs fresh thyme 1 tsp. fresh rosemary

Makes about 2 cups Mix all ingredients together and use to marinate meats, fish or vegetables.
