This recipe is truly versatile because you can use it as a dipping sauce for your favourite fresh, crusty bread or as a vinaigrette dressing for salads, roasted veggies or roasted chicken/beef. It’s delicious during these hot summer months and is so easy to make.
Ingredients (makes approx 3/4 cup – can be easily doubled)
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons honey (or agave if following a strict vegan diet)
pinch of salt and pepper
Utensils:
measuring cups | measuring spoons | small bowl | fork/small whisk | jar/container with a tight-fitting lid to store
Directions:
1. | Place all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together
2. | Adjust taste if necessary (you can add more herbs or garlic, etc)
3. | Serve immediately as a dipping sauce or vinaigrette dressing
4. | If not being used straight away, you can store it in an air-tight jar/container with a tight-fitting lid (this does not need to be refrigerated and will keep well for about a week out on the counter)

The honey gives a nice flavour and the great thing is you can play around with how much you add (the same with the herbs, etc) so you get it just how you like it!

To be honest, I wasn’t expecting there to be that many ingredients for what sounds like a pretty straightforward dipping sauce. I have a very long way to go if I want to get better in the kitchen

I’m definitely still learning how to be better in the kitchen, and try to find things I can use in multiple ways so I don’t waste what I make. This is a good vinaigrette to start making as you can practice changing what you put in it, etc. Thanks for stopping by!

I’m going to have to try this! I tend to fall back on ranch for everything and need something lower calorie. Thank you for sharing!

Yep, same with me! It’s so easy just to reach for the ranch but this is a great change up. I really love it and find it less heavy (if that makes sense). It’s so tasty!
