Homemade Olive Oil & Lemon Vinaigrette

Homemade Olive Oil & Lemon Vinaigrette is a bright, citrus-forward vinaigrette commonly used in Mediterranean-style salads and as a light finishing sauce for vegetables, fish or grilled chicken. It’s typically made with olive oil, lemon (or lime), mustard and a touch of sweetener, and is known for delivering lemony flavor with less oil than traditional vinaigrettes. Nutritionally, the dressing contributes beneficial monounsaturated fat and vitamin E from the olive oil while being very low in protein and fiber; however, it can be relatively high in sodium at 2.3g per 100g, so portion size matters. Overall, it’s a flavorful way to add healthy olive-oil fats and some antioxidant benefit to dishes, but choosing lower-sodium versions or making small servings helps keep it balanced in a health-conscious meal plan.
