Bright and refreshing, this Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette strikes the perfect balance of tangy, sweet, and savory flavors. Milder than traditional lemons, Meyer lemon juice pairs beautifully with olive oil, Dijon mustard, and a touch of honey, creating a smooth dressing that elevates simple salads and seasonal vegetables. Try it drizzled over delicate greens or spooned atop blanched asparagus for a light, elegant finish.
