Eggless Greek Herb Marinade
Bright, garlicky, and loaded with Mediterranean character, this herb marinade is the kind of thing you'll want to keep stocked in your fridge at all times. Extra-virgin olive oil forms the base, while fresh lemon juice and apple cider vinegar give it a tangy lift that tenderizes whatever you're marinating. Dried oregano, thyme, and a touch of cumin layer in that unmistakably Greek warmth, and the optional fresh parsley adds a pop of color and freshness right at the end. The whole thing comes together in a single bowl with just a whisk — no cooking, no fuss. Since it's built entirely from pantry staples and fresh aromatics, there's nothing here that could sneak in an unwanted ingredient, making it a genuinely worry-free option for anyone avoiding eggs. It keeps beautifully in a sealed jar for up to five days, so you can make a batch ahead and have it ready to go for weeknight dinners all week long.
