Chili Lime Vinaigrette

Yields: 9 oz

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar (substitute apple cider vinegar or white vinegar)

  • 1 Tbsp low-sodium tamari 

  • 1 Tbsp agave 

  • 1/3 cup olive oil

  • 2 limes, zested + juiced (4 tablespoons juice + 1 tablespoon zest)

  • 1 clove garlic, finely minced

  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (add another 1/4 teaspoon for an extra kick of spice)

  • 1 tsp ground cumin

  • 1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

Add all ingredients to a one quart jar, seal with a lid and shake well. This dressing takes 15 minutes to prepare. If using a blender, the garlic clove can remain whole, add in zest and red pepper flakes after blending. When possible, allow the dressing to sit for 30 minutes in the fridge before serving. 

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
