- 1 clove Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Honey

Add the Dijon mustard, minced garlic, honey, ground black pepper, and dried oregano to the bowl or jar.
Whisk the ingredients together until fully combined, or if using a jar, secure the lid and shake vigorously.
Add 1 tablespoon of water to the mixture to slightly thin out the dressing and whisk or shake again until evenly mixed.
