- 2 teaspoons - finely chopped onion
- 1 teaspoons - Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoons - salt

For Dressing:
In a blender, combine lemon juice, sugar, onion, mustard and salt. While processing, gradually add oil in a steady stream. Stir in poppy seeds. Transfer to a small pitcher or bowl; cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until chilled.
