Pescatarian Apple Cider Vinaigrette
Bright, tangy, and just a little earthy, this homemade vinaigrette is the kind of dressing that makes you wonder why you ever bought a bottle. Apple cider vinegar brings a sharp, fruity backbone, while honey rounds out the acidity with a gentle sweetness that doesn't tip into cloying territory. Fresh thyme and a pinch of turmeric give it a herby, golden warmth that feels a step above your average weeknight salad situation. The slow drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil while whisking is the key move here — it creates a beautifully emulsified dressing that clings to greens instead of pooling at the bottom of the bowl. A little minced garlic stirred in takes the whole thing to another level if you're feeling bold. It keeps in the fridge for up to a week, so you can drizzle it over salads, grain bowls, roasted vegetables, or anything else that needs a lift. Simple ingredients, zero fuss, and genuinely delicious results.
