(This Lemon Zest Vinaigrette is inspired by the Tone It Up girls.)
Step by Step Instructions:
I have a feeling Lemon Zest Vinaigrette will soon become your favorite dressing too, so here’s what you’ll need to make it: Sea Salt, Pepper, Honey, Extra-Virgin Olive Oil, 2 Lemons, and Coriander (optional).
Start off by grabbing a microplane grater and zesting one lemon to begin the Lemon Zest Vinaigrette.
Then carefully add the zest to a mason jar.
Grab your favorite juicer, and then juice both lemons into the mason jar careful to avoid any seeds.
Add about one tablespoon of EVOO, so the dressing will be a bit thicker.
Then squeeze about a teaspoon of honey into the jar, which will sweeten the lemons a tad.
Finally add a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper to the jar along with about 1/8 teaspoon (couple of dashes) of ground coriander to the Lemon Zest Vinaigrette.
Then pop on the lid of the mason jar, and shake up the Lemon Zest Vinaigrette really well and you’re good to go! You’ll get about 3 servings out of this dressing, and I love to keep it on hand in the fridge. Just be sure you shake the Lemon Zest Vinaigrette well before using, so that the ingredients are combined. Happy shaking!
