Mixed Greens with Lemon Champagne Vinaigrette

Champagne Vinaigrette Tips
How do I store champagne vinaigrette?
We recommend storing champagne vinaigrette in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. If the vinaigrette separates during storage, give the covered jar a gentle shake before using.Can you substitute onion for the shallot?
Yes, you can substitute white or yellow onion for shallots. But because shallots are smaller and have a sweeter, milder flavor, don’t make a 1:1 substitution. Otherwise, the onion flavor may be too overpowering. Green onions, which are also mild, can be used in place of shallots, too. Learn more about the different types of onions.What else pairs with champagne vinaigrette?
