Fresh Grapefruit Vinaigrette
Fresh, tangy grapefruit vinaigrette combines bright citrus flavor with a touch of honey for a light, versatile dressing you'll want to drizzle on everything.
Servings 2 tablespoon servings
Ingredients
- ½ cup fresh squeezed grapefruit juice about 1 large
- 1 ½ tablespoons red wine vinegar
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 ½ tablespoons honey
- ¼ teaspoons onion powder
- ¼ teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 ½ cups vegetable oil
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a mason jar and shake well. Alternately you could blend all ingredients except oil in a blender and then slowly with the blender running, drizzle in oil until combined. Store in fridge.
Notes
- Store finished dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 5-7 days for best results.
- You can also make this in a blender- I've included instructions for both in the written recipe. I just love the gorgeous color and bright, fresh taste!
- You can serve it on your choice of salad ingredients but just remember that it's a more delicate dressing, so it works especially well with lighter greens, like a spring mix, spinach or romaine. The pictures below include grilled chicken, grapefruit segments, golden raisins, pistachios, sunflower seeds and feta (ok, I forgot the feta in the pictures, but it SHOULD have been there!). Avocado would also be amazing with all of this stuff. Be creative and try it out. It's perfect for later-summer meals on the patio!
- For extra flavor, add in a little zest from the grapefruit as well.
