Here’s a copycat recipe from one of my favorite breakfast spots, FirstWatch. With their breakfasts, FirstWatch serves a side of crisp, fresh greens drizzled with the most amazing lemon poppyseed dressing. It’s so good that it has me craving vegetables for breakfast! So, let’s recreate this dressing that can elevate your morning greens.
Storage
If you happen to have some dressing left over (which is rare because it’s that good!), store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. I love these mason jars + lids or dressings bottles you can find here in my Amazon storefront. Homemade dressings typically last for up to one week when properly refrigerated. Give it a good shake before using it again to re-emulsify the ingredients.
This Lemon Poppyseed Dressing is light, refreshing, and packed with flavor, making it a perfect complement to your greens, whether it’s for breakfast or any other meal.
By recreating this dressing at home, you have the advantage of knowing precisely what goes into it, allowing you to tailor it to your dietary preferences. You can control the sweetness, adjust the saltiness, or even experiment with different types of greens and vegetables.
