Ingredients

  • ½ cup olive oil extra virgin
  • ⅓ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 garlic peeled and minced, large clove
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp herbs de Provence or Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp salt to taste, sea salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Use immediately on your favorite salads or as a marinade, or store balsamic vinaigrette in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. I find a mason jar works great for storing dressings, as do Wreck jars.
  2. If the dressing has been sitting in the refrigerator for a while and is chilled, give it a good shake or stir before using it.

Notes

  • *You can also use avocado oil
