    Homemade Balsamic Vinaigrette

    Why buy store-bought dressing when you can throw together this flavorful Homemade Balsamic Vinaigrette in five minutes flat?

    Pouring balsamic vinaigrette on a garden salad in a white bowl.

    This dressing is tangy, sweet and perfectly seasoned.  You probably have all of the ingredients on-hand to make it, so why not?  Just five minutes is all it takes!

    I enjoy salads so much during the summer months and have been making this dressing since I can remember.  I make it more often now since I live by myself (and with my dog Baby!). It’s difficult cooking for one sometimes and salads are always easy to throw together for a quick dinner.

    It doesn’t get much easier than this.  It’s so much better than store-bought and is budget-friendly, too!

    Enjoy!
