Gluten Free Honey Lime Dressing
Bright, tangy, and just a little bit sweet, this honey lime dressing is the kind of thing you'll want to drizzle over everything — grain bowls, grilled chicken, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad. The combination of fresh lime juice, raw honey, and grated ginger gives it a lively kick, while ground turmeric adds a warm, golden depth that makes it look as good as it tastes. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from gluten, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden additives the way you might with store-bought dressings. The technique is straightforward: whisk the base ingredients together first to dissolve the honey, then slowly stream in the olive oil until the whole thing emulsifies into a smooth, slightly thickened pour. A handful of fresh cilantro stirred in at the end is optional, but it adds a herby brightness that really ties everything together. Make a jar on Sunday and you'll have a versatile, vibrant dressing ready to elevate meals all week long.
