Why make this recipe

This balsamic and herb-based dressing is so easy and delicious, that there is no need to buy store-bought dressing ever again. Made with balsamic vinegar, herbs, and olive oil, this Greek dressing is naturally vegan and gluten-free.

Ingredients and substitutions

  • Mustard – you can use yellow mustard, spicy brown mustard, or Dijon mustard. Mustard is a key ingredient to get the dressing to emulsify, you can not omit this from the recipe.
  • Balsamic Vinegar – I like the flavor of balsamic vinegar, but you can also use red wine vinegar.
  • Oregano – for a classic Greek flavor. You can also swap this with Italian herb seasonings.
  • Garlic Powder – this adds a little more flavor, you can also use fresh finely minced garlic.
  • Sugar – you can also use agave nectar or maple syrup. Feel free to adjust the amount to suit your taste.
  • Salt – for flavor.
  • Light Olive Oil – you can swap this for any other neutral-flavored oil that you want to use.

Helpful tools

  • A bowl and a whisk.
