This Greek Salad Dressing is an easy homemade dressing you can whip up in minutes, free from processed ingredients and absolutely delicious. Try it on Greek salad – the lemon flavors go perfectly with it!

I’ve been making homemade salad dressings for years and years now. Some of my favorites are Balsamic Vinaigrette DressingandWhite Balsamic Vinaigrette– and this Greek dressing recipe!

It’s SO simple to whip up your own, and you can make them ahead and keep them in the fridge for a few days.

Ingredients you’ll need

Here is a visual overview of the ingredients in the recipe. Scroll down to the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post for quantities!

Ingredient notes

• Olive oil: The olive oil is quite prominent in this dressing, so make sure to use an oil you like the taste of.
• Red wine vinegar: White wine vinegar is a great substitute if you don’t have the red wine vinegar, although I will say that the red wine vinegar does lend a special character to this recipe. You can also use all lemon juice, if you prefer.
• Lemon juice: I highly recommend freshly squeezed here, but bottled is perfectly fine if that’s all you have on hand.
• Honey: A mild, runny honey works best in this recipe.
• Mustard: I use a smooth Dijon mustard, but yellow mustard works just as well.

How to make Greek salad dressing

This is so simple – just add all ingredients to a measuring jug or jar (or straight to your empty salad bowl if you prefer to add your dressing to the bowl first). Whisk until smooth, check for seasoning, adjust seasoning… And you’re done!

Recipe tips

• The vinegar sets at the bottom of the dressing, which is normal. It’s easiest to get the dressing just right with a small whisk, but a fork or simply shaking the jar works as well.
• Store the dressing in the fridge in a tightly closed jar for up to 5 days.

This is a dressing that definitely leaves a smile on my face! We love using this on a chopped Greek salad, a Greek orzo salad or a Greek pasta salad.
