Notes
How To Serve Citrus Vinaigrette
Serve this citrus vinaigrette over a simple green salad with fresh ingredients. I love easy healthy recipes and pour this over fresh spinach with a few shaves of good parmesan cheese. This is one of my all-time favorite healthy salad recipes to serve for either a weeknight dinner or for company.- Toss into on a summer salad made with spring mix, Iceberg or Romaine lettuce.
- Homemade salad dressings are ideal for special diets as this citrus vinaigrette dressing has no sugar and is great on a keto or low carb diet.
- Grate lemon zest on top of the salad for a citrus punch.
- Toast pine nuts, sprinkle with sea salt and toss in some in your salad.
- To mix it up make this same recipe an orange salad. Use fresh orange juice in place of lemon juice. Slice some fresh orange zest, and maybe some orange segments on top of your salad.
- Add pieces of goat cheese for a tasty combination.
- "Make and shake" in one container, is a great way to save on cleanup!
- Another great option, try other fresh fruit like grapefruit, blood oranges, or lime juice in this recipe to go with your favorite salad.
- Drizzle and toss this healthy dressing onto any grain salads.
- To add a little bit of sweetness, you can as a couple teaspoons honey.
