Step 1

Whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl until evenly combined. (Or — my favorite method — shake the ingredients together in a mason jar or dressing bottle until evenly combined.)

Step 2

Add your desired amount of maple syrup (or honey) to sweeten, along with any optional add-ins that you desire.

Step 3

Serve immediately, or refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 1 week.

Chef’s notes

*Or if you don’t have Italian seasoning, dried thyme or oregano would work well.
