Gluten Free Greek Herb Vinaigrette
Bright, herby, and punchy with lemon, this homemade vinaigrette brings serious Mediterranean flavor to just about anything you drizzle it over. Store-bought dressings are a minefield of hidden thickeners and malt-based additives, so making your own is genuinely the smarter move when you need to keep things gluten-free. Every single ingredient here — olive oil, apple cider vinegar, fresh lemon, garlic, dried herbs — is naturally free of gluten, no substitutions required. The technique is simple: whisk the acid and seasonings together first, then stream in the olive oil slowly until the dressing emulsifies into something silky and cohesive. A touch of raw honey is optional but rounds out the tang beautifully if you have it on hand. It keeps in the fridge for up to five days, so you can make a jar on Sunday and have a bold, restaurant-worthy dressing ready all week long.
