Recipe | Spicy Mustard and Grapefruit Vinaigrette


I'm not entirely sure what compelled me to use a grapefruit in a dressing, but I've been wanting to do so for quite some time. I was really nervous about how it would come out, but this vinaigrette is absolutely fantastic... I was pleasantly surprised.

Pour this over your salad, use it as a dipping sauce or marinade, or... check back soon for a delicious spring-time recipe utilizing this vinaigrette :)



In a mason jar or a small mixing bowl combine the following:

the juice of 1 grapefruit - about 1/4 cup
2 tbsp spicy brown mustard
1 tsp raw agave nectar (maple syrup or honey would work just fine)
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

*if you're using a mason jar, just pour all the ingredients together and shake them up. If using a mixing bowl, slowly whisk in the olive oil at the end to combine all the ingredients.

Enjoy! :)
