Creating the perfect salad dressing can be likened to an art form. It’s all about balancing flavors that complement a wide array of ingredients. If you’re on the hunt for a versatile and delicious salad dressing that can elevate almost any combination of greens and toppings, this easy-to-make dressing might just be your answer.
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup of your preferred oil
- 3 tablespoons of honey
- 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
- Juice of a small orange

Instructions:
- In a bowl or a mason jar, whisk together the oil, honey, apple cider vinegar, and fresh orange juice. The oil provides a smooth base for the dressing, while the honey balances the vinegar’s acidity with its sweetness.
- Stir in the Dijon mustard until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- If you’re using a jar, secure the lid and shake vigorously. Alternatively, whisking in a bowl works just as well to achieve the same result.
- Drizzle over your favorite salad just before serving.
- This dressing is incredibly versatile, making it the perfect fit for everything from a simple green salad to more complex compositions with fruits, nuts, and cheeses.
