Lemon Poppy Seed Vinaigrette is by far my favorite salad dressing of the summer. It goes well with just about any salad combination; I recommend tossing the salad with mixed greens, strawberries, pecans, shaved shallots, goat cheese, and a little grilled chicken — yum!
LEMON POPPY SEED VINAIGRETTE
It makes 1 1/2 cups.
Ingredients

Zest from 1 Meyer lemon
4 Meyer lemons, juiced

Place in a large mason jar or airtight container and store in the fridge until ready to use. Give the dressing a stir or shake before serving. Use within one week
