Balsamic Vinaigrette Salad Dressing

Ingredients

½ cup balsamic vinegar
¼-½ cup olive oil
1 teaspoon maple syrup (or honey)
1 teaspoon dijon
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 Tablespoon fresh or ½ teaspoon dried basil and/or thyme, optional

Directions

Add all ingredients into a blender and blend until combined or alternatively you can add all the ingredients into a mason jar and shake or whisk until emulsified.

Store the vinaigrette in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. If the olive oil becomes solid (this is normal), simply let the dressing sit out on the counter for 10-15 minutes and then whisk or shake to combine and serve.

Recipe makes about 3/4 cup.
