How to Make Sweet and Tangy Lemon Dressing:
1. Simply zest and juice your lemon(s), and then add necessary amounts to a small blender, such as one of those bullets that you make smoothies in.
2. Add remaining three ingredients to the blender and blend for 30 seconds. If whisking, you’ll want to whisk away until all ingredients are well incorporated, about one minute.
And that’s all there is to it! Add this dressing to your salad and prepare for joyful taste buds.
