- 3 Tablespoons (45 ml) lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil

Notes
- This dressing uses a 3:2 acid to oil ratio. For marinades or braising, adjust it to fit your recipe, and use more oil when grilling or roasting.
- Add a pinch of your favorite herbs, like basil, chives, dill, or parsley. Here's how to keep your herbs fresh.
- Taste it on a piece of lettuce or kale before adjusting, since it tastes different on greens than on its own.
- Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little kick.
