Lemon Vinaigrette

It doesn't get much simpler or tastier than this folks. This is my FAVORITE salad dressing to have on hand to toss on a salad or just mix in with some chopped up carrots or zucchini. It takes about two minutes to whip up and it will stay in the fridge for a couple of weeks, if it lasts that long. Here it is:

Ingredients:
-Juice of 2 lemons
-1/3 - 1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil, depending on how tangy you like it. I like it extra tangy so I go light on the oil.
-2 tsp raw honey
-1 tsp dijon
-1 garlic clove, finely minced
-sea salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
-Toss it all in an airtight container and shake it up! Keep shaking....ok that's good. The dijon will act as an emulsifier to keep it smooth.
-Taste for seasoning and adjust

*Please use organic ingredients when possible.
