Tangy dressing

 A tangy dressing usually has a nice balance of acidity (citrus or vinegar) + sweetness (honey or maple) + salt + a little richness (oil or yogurt). Here are a few variations you can use for salads, especially with apples or other fruits:


🍋 Simple Lemon-Honey Vinaigrette

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup

  • ½ tsp Dijon mustard (optional, helps emulsify)

  • Salt & pepper to taste

👉 Whisk or shake in a jar until smooth.


🍎 Apple Cider Vinaigrette (great with apple salad!)

  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

  • ½ cup olive oil

  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

  • Pinch of salt & black pepper

👉 This one is slightly sharp but balanced with sweetness—pairs perfectly with nuts and cheese in salads.


🥭 Tangy Yogurt Dressing (creamy style)

  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice or lime juice

  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tsp honey

  • ½ tsp garlic powder or fresh grated garlic (optional)

  • Salt & pepper

👉 Creamy, zesty, and light.
