Homemade Dijon Salad Dressing

Dear Readers,

Making homemade salad dressing is really simple and you can control the amount of fat. Many of the bottled salad dressings that are on the shelves contain a lot of additives, oil, and sugar that is unnecessary. The idea of adding sugar to salad dressing is strange. The idea is accenting the vegetables and lettuce not dreading it with high calorie, sugary goop. I make a light and simple salad dressing that is healthy and fresh tasting. Enjoy my recipe.


3 large garlic cloves (minced)
1/2 juice of fresh lemon
2 tbsp champagne vinegar
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp olive oil
pinch salt
pinch fresh ground pepper

Directions:
1-In a blender add the garlic, lemon juice, vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Blend until all ingredients are well incorporated. While blender is on slowly drizzle in the olive oil.

2-Add the salt and pepper. Taste to make sure the flavor is well blended.

3-For a less tart dressing add in another 1 tsp of olive oil. This is optional.
