1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil.
2 Tbsp Flavored balsamic vinegar. (we use an apple flavored currently)
1 tsp Honey (we use raw from a local seller)
1 tsp Dijon mustard.
Whisk until emulsified.

If you like vinaigrettes you should try this one. The dijon compliments the balsamic and honey very well. If you did not know ahead of time it had Dijon in it you would never guess.

Thanx for Posting, Sounds Good,

Seems I always tire of all those creamed base dressings and look for a change from time to time.

This is the way I make mine, too. The mustard emulsifies the oil and vinegar and holds them together. I usually use some herbs de Provence, or some thyme, savory, marjoram or whatever.
For a nice change, replace the honey with other liquid sugars, like boiled cider syrup or cherry syrup, and use white balsamic. Very nice. Especially on a salad with mesclun mix, Gorgonzola, candied walnuts, dried cherries, and apple or pear slices.

I always make my own salad dressings. Here are two of my favorite:

My "go to" Vinaigrette:

EVOO
Red wine vinegar
Couple cloves of garlic, minced
Oregano
Basil
Thyme
Touch of prepared mustard
Lemon juice

All ingredients to taste ... put in a glass container and shake well.

Also...The best Bleu Cheese:

50% Sour cream
50% Mayo
Bleu cheese crumbles
Crack pepper
Touch of cayenne pepper

Stir well to incorporate, chill and serve

I use pretty much this same recipe except I add a clove of garlic. I use it mainly in a spinach salad with candied pecans, strawberries, feta cheese and purple onions. Mmm, now I'm hungry
