Equipment

Mixing bowl

Ingredients

¼ cup white balsamic vinegar
½ cup fresh squeezed orange juice (about 2 small oranges)
3 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
3 tablespoons fresh squeezed lime juice (about 2 limes)
3 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil (or other neutral tasting oil) I usually prefer avocado oil in my dressings because sometimes olive oil flavor can overpower!
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, stems removed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
½ teaspoon dijon mustard
¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a bowl. Whisk to combine.

Notes

This recipe makes about 1 ½ cups of salad dressing.
While store-bought, pre-squeezed juices are convenient they just don’t taste the same as fresh juice. Fresh citrus juice is key to making this a fresh and flavorful recipe!
