Tips for the best Mediterranean Salad Dressing –

Use fresh lemon juice rather than bottled whenever possible.
Let the dressing sit for 5 minutes so flavors can meld.
Shake well before each use as the oil and vinegar can seperate.
For a cremier texture add a tablespoon of greek yogurt or mayonnaise.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
