Homemade Salad Dressings!

Instead of throwing bottles of preservative filled salad dressings into your shopping cart, try making some HOMEMADE SALAD DRESSINGS instead!  

Here are a few that I have tried! 

Greek Vinaigrette:

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

1 1/4 tsp. dried oregano

1/2 tsp dijon mustard

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

3/4 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1/2 cup olive oil

Italian Salad Dressing:

3/4 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 1/2 tsp. freshly grated parmesan cheese

1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. garlic, very finely minced

2 tsp. sugar

Ranch Salad Dressing:

1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream 

1/2 teaspoon dried chives 

1/2 teaspoon dried parsley 

1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed 

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 

1/4 teaspoon onion powder 

1/8 teaspoon salt 

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 

combine all ingredients at least 30 minutes before of serving.  After 30 minutes, check seasonings and adjust if necessary.  If needed, add a small amount of water to thin.
