Ingredients

  • 1 ounce fresh squeezed lemon juice (juice of 1 lemon)
  • 6 ounces olive oil (¾ cup)
  • 4 ounces apple cider vinegar (¼ cup)

Notes

This dressing is ideal for this Harvest Salad
Use any sweetener you prefer here, but be aware that some dressings will crystallize in the fridge. 
Homemade Cranberry Sauce: We made our sugar free cranberry sauce ahead of time. In fact, we actually had some leftover from Thanksgiving. It will store in the fridge for about 7 days. You can freeze it for a few months if you like.
For this dressing, we would also recommend omitting the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon from the original cranberry sauce recipe so that we have a more neutral base to work from.
