Those ready made vinaigrettes are sooo expensive when you look at the raw ingredients, plus if you make it yourself, you get to recycle that old jam jar (or go and purchase a lovely purpose made dressing container) and you can adapt it to your own taste, a little bit more mustard? Any more garlic? Or add honey, or try different oils…. Up to you
Ingredients (makes about half a cup)
4-6 tbs olive oil or sunflower (or mix of both)
1 tbs wine or cider vinegar
1 tbs lemon juice
1 large clove garlic, crushed
salt and pepper
method
mix all the ingredients in your chosen lidded container and shake well.

I always make mine in the bowl I'll mix the salad in; first crush some garlic, add a spoonful of grainy mustard, mix up, add some olive oil, finally add a splash of balsamic vinegar! Add your leaves etc and toss about with a fork...
