This tangy citrus vinaigrette is a refreshing and flavorful dressing that's perfect for salads, grilled vegetables, or even as a marinade. It's made with a blend of olive oil, lemon juice, lime juice, orange juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper. The citrus juices add a bright and tangy flavor, while the Dijon mustard and honey add a touch of sweetness and depth. This vinaigrette is also low-FODMAP, making it a great option for people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
I developed this recipe a few years ago when I was looking for a healthy and flavorful salad dressing. I wanted something that was light and refreshing, but also had a bit of a kick. I experimented with different combinations of citrus juices and spices until I came up with this recipe. I've been using it ever since, and it's become a favorite of my family and friends.
