LOVED this. Brought to a family gathering. They polished it ALL off (never happens) and people were going back for seconds. Score! -
I loved, loved, loved this dressing! I was out of green onions so subbed in diced red onion. Such a wonderful combination of flavors. Served it over a simple salad of romaine, celery and carrots. Great! -
This is a great salad dressing, and the ingredient for the salad are simple but perfect to bring out the flavors of the dressing. As previously stated, the 8 hours marinating is the key! You will not be disappointed. Made for Please Review My Recipe Tag Game. -
What a great tasting salad courtesy of the great tasting vinaigrette. I didn't allow 8 hours to marinate...about 4 and so I'm equally as anxious to try this again tomorrow night. I eat a salad most nights and so I"m always on the look-out for a different change-up in dressings. I especially like the way the red wine vinegar comes thru nicely. I also subbed canola oil in place of the vegetable oil and illiminated the green onions, only because I didn't have any. I'm sure they'd add a nice compliment to the dressing as well. A real keeper Lainey. Made for 123Hits.~ -

Wow, what a great salad dressing. When I first made it, I thought ho-hum, but allowing it to marinate for 8 hours worked magic!!!!! It went especially well with my beautiful home grown tomatoes and I used cucumber and a little green bell pepper in place of the raw mushrooms which I don't eat (I'd rather chow down on a wad of kitchen paper lol). I made the full recipe of dressing and will love using it over the next couple of days.
