Notes

Substitutions:
1.) You can swap white vinegar with whatever vinegar you have, the closer to white the better. 
2.) You can swap agave with maple syrup, however, keep in mind that agave has a lower glycemic index which is why I recommend it first. 
3.) If you do not have Italian Seasoning on hand, some oregano, or simply more salt and pepper will do.
