Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons orange juice plus zest of ½ orange replace it with lemon juice and zest for making a lemon Dijon vinaigrette if you're on a strict keto diet
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon real maple syrup or honey, or more to taste (NOTE: If you're on a keto/low-carb diet, use sugar-free maple syrup or honey).
  • A pinch of table salt
  • A dash of freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Zest ½ orange using a zester. Place it into a mason jar and add the orange juice, lemon juice, mustard, maple syrup, salt, and pepper.
  2. Lastly, add the olive oil, close the jar tightly, and shake well until creamy and emulsified. TIP: Dress your salads with just enough of the maple dijon vinaigrette to coat the salad; otherwise, it will become soggy!

Notes

  • Storage
  • Store maple dijon vinaigrette in the fridge for up to 1 week; bring to room temperature before serving or dressing the salad.
  • Please, don’t forget to shake it well before dressing your salad!
  • Do not freeze!
