Eosinophilic Esophagitis Friendly Orange-Garlic Vinaigrette
Bright, citrusy, and just a little bit warming, this vinaigrette brings serious flavor to simple greens, roasted vegetables, or grain bowls without relying on any of the common trigger ingredients that make store-bought dressings such a gamble. Fresh orange juice and zest give it a natural sweetness and lift, while apple cider vinegar adds just enough tang to keep things lively. A touch of raw honey balances the acidity, and grated ginger with ground turmeric layer in gentle warmth that feels anything but boring. The whole thing comes together in minutes — just whisk, drizzle in the olive oil, and you have a beautifully emulsified dressing that clings to every leaf. Because you're making it from scratch with whole, recognizable ingredients, you stay in complete control of what goes in — no hidden additives, no mystery preservatives, no cross-contact worries. It keeps in the fridge for up to five days, so you can batch it on Sunday and have a bright, safe dressing ready all week long.
