Shake and Go Balsamic Vinaigrette

We like Balsamic Vinaigrette. This one from Angela Liddon in, 'Oh She Glows Every Day," is the easiest I've made.  I discovered it is yummy on steak fries, as well as salads.

Notes: Angela suggests adding a dash of liquid smoke, paprika and thyme for a "smoky" dressing, a pinch of dried or fresh herbs (oregano and basil) for an Italian vinaigrette or dashes of cumin, coriander, and turmeric for a slight Indian flair.

INGREDIENTS: 
1/3 to 2/3 extra virgin olive oil, to taste
1/3 C balsamic vinegar
4 1/2 tsp low sodium tamari
1 large clove of garlic, minced
1 tsp maple syrup, or to taste

DIRECTIONS: Combine all in a small mason jar, seal and shake vigorously. Store in the fridge up to a couple of weeks. Shake before each use.

Make it so-free Swap the tamari for 2 - 4 T coconut aminos, to taste.
