Ingredients

2 cloves garlic minced or pressed
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon lemon juice juice from 1 lemon, use fresh!
½ cup avocado oil or olive oil
½ cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

In a small bowl or dressing container combine the mustard, garlic, honey, red wine vinegar, and Italian seasoning.
Shake to combine.
Add the lemon juice and salt.
Shake or stir to combine.
Slowly add in the oil while whisking to combine.
Store in the fridge until ready to use.

Notes

Add the oil slowly while whisking for a smoother, better blended dressing. Or use a jar and shake it aggressively, which works and requires no coordination.
Use a jar with a tight lid. This is a dressing you shake, not one you fuss over.
Let it chill an hour so the garlic and herbs actually release their flavor.
Shake before every use. Every single one. It separates and that's fine.
Double the batch. It keeps for two weeks and you will find reasons to use it.
