What makes this dressing special? The tang of a freshly squeezed lemon combined with a hint of sweetness from the agave! Add dijon mustard and extra-virgin olive oil and you have a perfectly balanced and creamy dressing. Goes great with any leafy green salad, shredded cabbage or roasted vegetable salad.
