Vibrant Honey Lemon Vinaigrette
Crafting this vinaigrette is truly a breeze, offering a refreshing zest to any salad or dish. It’s light, tangy, and perfect for summer lunches.
Ingredients
- 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp fresh lemon zest
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp whole grain mustard
- 0.5 cup avocado oil
- 1 pinch salt to taste
- 1 pinch pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place lemon juice, zest, honey, and apple cider vinegar into a mason jar. Next, swirl in the mustard until it forms a smooth blend.
- Add avocado oil gently, close the lid tightly, and shake the jar vigorously. Watch as the mixture emulsifies into a creamy dressing.
- Taste and sprinkle salt and pepper for extra flavor. Store in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to a week.
- Alternatively, whisk in a bowl or blend in a food processor for a silkier texture if no jar is available.
Notes
This vinaigrette brings brightness to any dish. I love using avocado oil for its smoothness, and the mustard gives a subtle kick that makes each bite delightful.
