Ingredients

  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3-4 TBSP white wine vinegar or champagne vinegar
  • 1/2-1 TBSP Italian seasoning blend (I love using Mrs. Dash's salt-free blend)
  • ½ TBSP garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
OPTIONAL EXTRAS
  • 1-2 tsp fresh parsley
  • 1 clove garlic (smashed + minced)
  • ⅛ tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk all ingredients together and allow to sit. Giving the dressing some time to mingle will not only infuse flavor into the oil/vinegar but also soften the dry herbs and seasoning.
  2. This dressing will keep in your fridge for about a week so make extra to drizzle over a week's worth of salads! Enjoy!

Notes

  • Craving a little kiss of Parmesan in your dressing? Fabulous! Add 1-2 TBSP of finely grated parmesan cheese and blend in a small food processor or blender.
  • You can even add a little dijon vinegar to the mix if you'd like!
  • Feel free to adjust oil-to-vinegar ration to taste. The above measurements are my idea of perfection in a vinaigrette and I love how refreshing it is! 1 parts vinegar to 3 parts oil is a bit more conventional if desired.
