How To Make Oil-Free Sweet Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing

Want to try something new to pep up your salads at home? This tangy, garlicky oil-free dressing is for you! This recipe was an assignment from my plant-based cooking class. Traditional vinaigrettes use oil and an acid like vinegar or lemon juice. I tend to use olive oil. Just trying something different.
