Ingredients

  • 4 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 3 teaspoons whole grain mustard
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon honey optional, if desired

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl or jar and whisk or shake vigorously until emulsified. (Because of the mustard, a natural emulsifier, this dressing shouldn’t separate!)
  • Use immediately, or seal in a jar and store in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Notes

  • Storing the Dressing. Store it in a well-sealed jar or container and keep it in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • More Than a Dressing. Of course, it's great on your favorite salads, like my Harvest salad, but it works great as a marinade for chicken or pork, or a sauce for roasted carrots or parsnips.
