This lemon vinaigrette is one of my favourite dressing recipes! It’s light, fresh and goes with nearly every salad because of how simple it is. Lemons are rich in Vitamin C and promote hydration, skin quality and aids in digestion.
Tip: When using lemon in recipes that don’t require the zest, zest it anyways and store it in the freezer for another recipe.
