Basic Vinaigrette

A simple pantry recipe, this dressing can be thrown together at the last minute for dinner in a pinch.

Ingredients

• ¼ cup (60 ml) red wine vinegar [or vinegar of choice]
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon salt, optional
• ¾ cup (180 ml) extra virgin olive oil

Directions

1. Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.
2. Start the blender on its lowest speed, then quickly increase to its highest speed. Blend for 15-20 seconds, using the tamper to push ingredients toward the blades.

Notes

Try oregano, sage, and dill for a fresh herb blend, but any herb will work. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
