Summertime means eating more salads. So have you ever eaten a salad and thought about changing the dressing to fit your taste? It’s easy and fun to do. And the good news is, you don’t have to make a lot to try new flavor combinations. Unlike buying an entire bottle of salad dressing only to discover you don’t like it, you can whip up a small batch of ingredients you have on hand. If you don’t like it, you can try again!

Here is a personal favorite:

Honey Lemon Vinaigrette

2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

1 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 tsp. honey

Salt & pepper to taste

Fresh minced garlic to taste

Whisk ingredients together.
