Nooks on 2024-09-18 (5 stars): I made this. Used "Italian seasoning mix" instead of oregano and basil. Also, after prepped, I tasted and decided to add a little more vinegar. I absolutely love this. Highly recommend. Used this on my homemade antipasta salad. Will make again.
KC Long on 2024-08-05 (5 stars): This was more delicious than I could've ever imagined.
Jessica on 2024-07-16 (5 stars): Most wonderful Italian salad dressing ever! I have replaced it for any store bought dressing for my daily salads. I serve it at family meals too, which is a hit! I’m very impressed by the recipe! 💗
Cheryl Burke on 2024-06-14 (5 stars): I made this today to put on my tricolor Italian pasta salad. OMG, this is so good. I will never buy store Italian again..
Nicole Bartley on 2024-05-27 (5 stars): Excellent! Needed Italian Dressing fast, the nearest grocery store is over 30 minutes away (one direction). I DID have all these ingredients handy and everyone thought it tasted great!
Stella on 2024-05-25 (5 stars): I used what I had, fig and chili balsamic vinegar, garlic infused extra virgin olive oil, and the grated lemon peel and juice from my neighbor's lemon tree. It is amazing! Taking it to a family dinner for the salad. I'm excited to try as a Marinade too! Thank you!.
Helen on 2024-03-24 (5 stars): I am so glad I came across this recipe! I was craving a pasta salad for dinner and this dressing absolutely gave me the flavors that were lacking the last time I had made one. I was out of dried basil, so I had to sub 2tsp of italian seasoning for the basil and oregano. Used red wine vin and evoo. I cannot wait to use the rest of the dressing up tomorrow!
Jessie on 2024-02-24 (5 stars): This was fabulous! I made it as a chicken marinade and it was the most flavorful Italian dressing marinade I’ve ever tasted! Will definitely be making this again.
Rosemary on 2023-09-26 (5 stars): Tangy so I added a little bit of honey. All in all it is a good dressing.
Janet on 2023-09-23 (5 stars): My favorite Italian dressing! Just made up more to marinate sirloin steak. It’s the best!
Toni on 2023-09-03 (5 stars): I had to make pasta salad and didn't have Italian Dressing. I found your recipe and it was a perfect italian dressing to use. I made 3X which I used 1/2 for the salad and the rest for salads this coming week. I'll never buy store bought again.
This recipe is cost effective and definitely the best dressing to make when you make it with quality ingredients. I did add Salad Supreme because I had it and it complimented the pasta salad wonderfully.
Thank you for sharing your recipe with us!
