Apple Cider Vinaigrette Dressing

Get all the health benefits of apple cider vinegar with this delicious apple cider vinaigrette dressing. Drizzle over salad or use as a marinade.

This was my go-to salad dressing for the longest time. It’s super simple to make and is packed with nutrients and flavor! I have used it as a marinade for chicken, but I also like it on pretty much any salad.

Apple Cider Vinegar Benefits

I’ve shared a full post about the benefits of apple cider vinegar but here are the cliff notes:

• Rich in potassium, a mineral that is key for growth, building muscles, transmission of nerve impulses, heart activity etc.
• It can help regulate blood pressure and reduce bad cholesterol.
• Rich in malic acid which gives ACV its anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties.
• ACV helps with weight loss by breaking down fats so that your body can use them rather than store them.
• A few lab studies have found that ACV may be able to kill cancer cells or slow their growth.

Ingredients and Substitutions

• apple cider vinegar – look for apple cider vinegar with “the mother” included. I like Bragg’s apple cider vinegar!
• olive oil – the perfect pairing to apple cider vinegar.
• Dijon mustard – adds a little zest to the dressing!
• garlic clove – minced to release all of the yummy garlic flavor.
• sea salt and black pepper – I like to use freshly ground black pepper for the most flavor!

What to Serve with Apple Cider Vinegar Dressing

This dressing is awesome on a variety of different salads. I like using it for this brussels sprout chopped salad or as a marinade for grilled chicken.

How to Store Homemade Dressing

I like to mix my dressings in mason jars which are easy for shaking and storing! Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
