I am completely obsessed with making homemade vinaigrette! My goal is to eat spinach or shaved brussels sprouts salads most days for lunch. To keep it interesting, I switch up the vinaigrette every couple days and make something new.

This Lemon Dill Vinaigrette is definitely a favorite. It's tangy with a touch of sweetness, fresh and so delicious! The garlic, dijon and seasoned rice vinegar boost the flavor of this dressing. I highly recommend using seasoned rice vinegar in homemade vinaigrette. It's more mild than some other vinegars and has an amazing flavor. 

You can also use this vinaigrette in pasta salads for a BBQ, or as a marinade for chicken or fish. 

Store this dressing in the refrigerator, in a sealed mason jar, for easy pouring whenever you make a salad.

Lemon Dill Vinaigrette

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • A pinch of each salt, black pepper and granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients until combined or add ingredients to a small jar with a lid and shake until combined.
  2. This can be served immediately, but I recommend refrigerating for 30 minutes prior to serving to allow the flavors to develop.

Notes

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
