I really enjoyed this dressing. Had no dill seed so didn't use it. As some other reviewers suggested, I added 1 tablespoon Key Lime Honey to the mixture for a little sweetness and to cut the acid a bit. It was a lovely light dressing served over mixed baby greens. Thanks! Made for the FAMILY PICKS round of ZWT5, for the Bodacious Brickhouse Babes.

A nice bright dressing! We enjoyed it over a simple combination of mixed greens and cucumbers. The fresh dill and lemon worked well together. We might add a pinch of sweetener to cut the acid in the lemon (our preference). Thanks bigbadbrenda. Made for ZWT5.

Zippy Lemon Dressing made for one of my Easter salads - a delightful dressing! Served over those lovely mixed salad greens - delicous. Didn't have the dill seed but the market had lovely fresh which I generously snipped into the dressing ... other than adding a touch of sugar ( just a family preference) I made as posted. Thank you Brenda for a new recipe to add to my homemade dressing collection.

Easy, tasty and healthy as lemon juice is full of vitamin C. Adding lemon zest made it special! I used fresh dill cause dill weed are not available hear. I served it over lettuce and arugula salad but it will be very good also with a tomato salad. Thanks for sharing!

Quick and easy recipe to prepare. I substituted fresh dill weed for dried dill and had to leave out the dill seeds because it's not available in my area. It was refreshing and YUMMY. Thank you BigBadBrenda
