🍋 Simple Lemon Vinaigrette Recipe 👇
I don't know about you but whenever I try to eat healthier, I tend to overload my fridge with options. The problem is that it tends to add to food waste and frustration with a messy fridge. That is can be so discouraging to the process!
I need quick, healthy options that I can just make on a whim when I want something new, instead of buying something different that I may not like or will just forget about. This simple lemon 🍋 vinaigrette is the answer!
It's quick to whip up because you likely already have all the ingredients on hand! Make a small batch, so it's always fresh and gets used up fast – no more forgotten, expired bottles in the fridge door.
Suddenly, you've got delicious, healthy dressing for your salads 🥗, veggies, or chicken. Simple goodness, no fuss.
🍋 Simple Lemon Vinaigrette
1/4 cup mild vinegar (I like rice wine vinegar, but white wine is good too!)
2 Tbsp dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, grated over a microplane (or just smash it into a paste with the non-sharp end of the knife)
Salt, pepper, oregano
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 a lemon, juiced
Whisk together vinegar, mustard, garlic, and seasonings in a jar. Drizzle the olive oil in slowly while whisking. Whisk in the lemon juice. Add the top to the jar and shake it for good measure.
