Lemon Dijon Dressing

I started making my own salad dressing- usually only when I make a salad worthy of the effort (like my Spring salad- see below). I have tried different variations, basically attempting to avoid using olive oil. This one came out very well. It was a bit bitter, but adding a pinch of sugar really helped. The rest of the proportions are estimates. I usually just keep adding and tasting, and adding and tasting, until I get the right mixture!

Ingredients

Dijon mustard (1/4 cup)
Lemon juice (1/4 cup)
Apple Cider Vinegar (2 tablespoons)
Honey (2 tablespoons)
Sugar (just a pinch to cut bitterness)
Salt and Pepper (to taste)


Whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl and immediately serve with salad! Simple!
