Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil Colavita or California-grown works wonders
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar I like Bragg’s for its punchy tang
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (optional bright note)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano or 1 tablespoon fresh, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt adjust to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (balance the acidity; skip for strict vegan)
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese (optional garnish)

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, combine red wine vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and honey. Whisk until smooth and slightly frothy.
  • Stir in minced garlic and dried oregano. Let them mingle for a minute to amp up the flavor.
  • Slowly pour the olive oil in a steady stream, whisking continuously to create a silky emulsion.
  • Sprinkle in salt and pepper, taste, and adjust. Refrigerate for 15–30 minutes to meld flavors.
  • Drizzle over greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, and olives. Top with feta cheese and fresh parsley.

Notes

Swap red wine vinegar for apple cider or white wine vinegar if you prefer a milder bite. Use avocado oil in place of olive oil for a neutral flavor.
