Honey Mustard Dressing

A lighten-up honey mustard dressing This version is lighter than regular honey mustard but still just as flavorful!

Honey mustard dressing seems to be a staple dressing (or sauce) in many homes. I grew up on honey mustard sauce so it will always be a little nostalgic for me!

Traditional honey mustard is loaded with ingredients you can’t pronounce and not that great for you. So I took a stab at an Eating Bird Food version and it’s just as flavorful but made with much better ingredients!

Ingredients and Substitutions

• olive oil
• lemon juice
• apple cider vinegar
• honey – maple syrup works as well for a vegan version.
• dijon mustard
• garlic clove
• sea salt and ground pepper

What to Serve with this Honey Mustard Dressing

Honey mustard is a staple dressing recipe! I like this on a variety of side salads and meal-sized salads but it’s also delicious on my chicken tenders and chicken nuggets!

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.
