The BEST EVER Lemon Dressing

My family’s favourite salad dressing is super easy and really yummy!

Delicious!

The BEST EVER Lemon Dressing:

• Juice a whole lemon
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Sea salt, cracked pepper
• 1 -2 cloves garlic cut in half

ensure layers are even

Squeeze juice of lemon. Put juice into recycled jam jar. Pour in enough olive oil so that the layers are equal (using clear jar is important). Add cut clove of garlic, salt and pepper to taste. Tighten lid and shake shake shake!

YUM!

Great as is or can add:

1 tbsp honey and 1 tbsp Dijon mustard… la voila! Instant French vinaigrette!!

OR

½ ripe avocado smashed – let sit in lemon juice for 10 minutes before adding other ingredients and you have a creamy dressing!

Pour over fresh baby spinach or your favourite mixed greens… yummy!

To store – keep sealed jar in fridge for up to a month. Remove from fridge 20 minutes before using to allow dressing come to room temperature.
