Ingredients
For the Vinaigrette
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil (can substitute canola oil)
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar or white wine vinegar
- ¼ cup pomegranate juice
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons honey
- Pinch of salt (preferably thick flakes)

Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the extra virgin olive oil, red or white wine vinegar, pomegranate juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper into a bowl, jar, or the container of a blender.
- Mix Thoroughly: Whisk vigorously by hand, shake the jar well, or blend on low speed until all the ingredients are fully combined and the vinaigrette is emulsified.
- Serve or Store: Use immediately to dress your favorite salad or store in the refrigerator in a sealed container for up to one week. Shake or whisk before each use as oil and vinegar may separate.
Notes

- Substitute canola oil for a lighter taste if preferred.
- Pomegranate juice can be fresh or store-bought 100% juice.
- This dressing is great over mixed greens, spinach, or as a marinade for chicken or vegetables.
