Ingredients
  

Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Honey Balsamic Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Creamy Garlic Dressing:

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Measure and Combine: Measure out all the spices and herbs accurately. Combine them in a small bowl.
  • Mix Thoroughly: Use a whisk or spoon to mix the ingredients until they are well combined. Ensure that the spices are evenly distributed to create a uniform blend.
  • Store Properly: Transfer the Cajun seasoning blend to an airtight container. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This will help preserve its flavor and potency for up to six months.
  • Adjust to Taste: Feel free to adjust the quantities based on your heat preference. If you like it spicier, add more cayenne pepper. For a milder blend, reduce the amount of cayenne.
