Equipment

1 mason jar with lid

Ingredients

½ cup extra virgin olive oil
⅓ cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons minced chives
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon pure maple syrup *honey can work, too
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Place all of the salad dressing ingredients into a small bowl, or a mason jar, secure the lid, and give it a shake or whisk in a bowl.
Drizzle the desired amount over a salad and toss it up until everything is coated. Enjoy!
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container and in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

The dressing will harden up in the fridge due to the olive oil. This is normal.

To unthaw the dressing, remove it from the fridge and leave it on the counter roughly 30 minutes-1 hour before serving. Give it a big shake before pouring, as well.
