Very nice recipe. Fresh and creamy. I made this for my husband who likes sweet dressings and he loved it. I would have preferred just a little vinegar for some tang, but that is a personal preference. I used Miracle Whip as that is what I had in the refrig and it gave it a little more sweetness. I also used bottled orange zest. Thanks for sharing. Carole in Orlando

A nice light dressing. Would go well with any of the "lighter" type salads. Especially fresh and lite in these upcoming hot, hot summer months. Now if I can get the poppy seeds from in between my teeth....lol. Thnx for posting such a lovely recipe. Made for ZWT4.

Outstanding! So fragrant, and so flavorful! We've already made this a second time, and it tastes equally good with tuna salad and cottage cheese. I'm thinking next time cold cooked chicken and hard cooked eggs - this dressing will taste delicious with anything you put on a nice fresh bed O greens! Thanks for posting this fabulous recipe, LUv 2 BaKE! Made for ZWT4 Zingo.

I loved this dressing! The boys at my house, however, were not as fond of it. They thought it tasted good over mixed greens with mandarin orange slices, but nothing special. Me, I thought it tasted sweet and fresh, and very creamy. I think this is going into the permanent files, even if it is just for me! Thank you for posting, made for ZWT4.

Have a great collection of Zaar dressing recipes - and now another has been added. This is really good! Only someone with a short growing season as we have here on the prairies would know how enjoyed are the first mixed greens, red and green onions, arugula and few snips of dill fresh from the garden - not imported but fresh - fresh - fresh! Topped with that lovely dressing - what a taste treat!
