Ingredients

¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed (or lime juice)
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove, peeled (or ⅛ teaspoon of garlic powder)
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (or regular mustard)
1-2 teaspoons honey (optional, but helps regulate acidity)
¾ teaspoons fine sea salt

Instructions

Microwave the garlic clove for 1 minute to help reduce its harsh bite, or skip this step if you like the taste of raw garlic.
Add all the ingredients to a container and blend with an immersion blender. (*see notes for other options other than immersion blender).
Use immediately and refrigerate any leftovers.

Notes

If you don't have an immersion blender, you can:

1- Use a single-serving blender. 2- Use garlic powder and blend everything with a whisk. 3- Mince or finely grate the garlic and then mix everything with a whisk.

Just keep in mind that the dressing will separate quicker when mixed with a whisk.
