Description

This is one of my favorite salad dressings. Its easy to make thanks to the squeeze bottle of crushed garlic that I always have on hand. All the ingredients are things you probably already have in your pantry. . After I’ve whisked it, I tend to taste it about 16 times, it is sooo good….Enjoy!

Ingredients

Scale

1 tsp crushed or finely chopped garlic
2 Tbl mayonnaise
2 Tbl white wine vinegar
1/2 tsp italian seasoning
1/4 cup (4 Tbl spoons) EVOO
salt & pepper to taste (about 1/8 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper is my fave)

Instructions

Add the garlic, mayonnaise, italian seasoning and vinegar to a bowl. Whisk away.
Whisk in the olive oil.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
It’s ready to go! Toss with your favorite greens.

Notes

I used white wine vinegar but red wine vinegar would also work. Our favorite salads are made with Romaine, olives, cherry tomatoes, a little cheese (parm or feta – or both!).
