Wheat Free Greek Herb Marinade
Bright, garlicky, and loaded with Mediterranean character, this herb marinade is the kind of thing that makes a simple piece of chicken or a handful of vegetables taste like a proper feast. The base is extra-virgin olive oil whisked together with fresh lemon juice and apple cider vinegar, which creates a tangy, well-rounded depth that store-bought dressings rarely match. Dried oregano, thyme, and a touch of cumin layer in that unmistakably Greek warmth, while fresh parsley adds a pop of color and freshness if you have it on hand. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from wheat, so there's no label-reading stress or worrying about hidden grain-based fillers that sometimes sneak into bottled marinades and spice blends. It comes together in one bowl with just a whisk, which means less cleanup and more time actually enjoying your meal. Make a batch, stash it in a jar in the fridge, and you've got a ready-to-go flavor boost for the next several days.
