Seeds Free Greek Herb Vinaigrette
Bright, tangy, and deeply herby, this Greek-inspired vinaigrette is the kind of dressing that makes a simple salad feel like something worth sitting down for. Extra-virgin olive oil forms the silky base, while apple cider vinegar and fresh lemon juice bring a lively acidity that wakes up everything it touches. Dried oregano and thyme give it that unmistakable Mediterranean character, and a hint of ground ginger adds just enough warmth to keep things interesting. A touch of raw honey rounds out the sharpness without tipping it into sweet territory. For anyone navigating a seeds-free lifestyle, bottled dressings can be a minefield — sesame, poppy, and other seed-derived oils have a way of sneaking into even the most innocent-looking labels. This one is made entirely from scratch with straightforward pantry staples, so you know exactly what's going in. Whisking the oil in slowly creates a beautifully emulsified dressing that clings to greens rather than pooling at the bottom of the bowl. Make a jar at the start of the week and you'll have a reliable, flavor-packed option ready to go for days.
