Submitted by Bev I Am

I made this exactly per the instructions, but we didn't like it. I had high hopes for it but we found it to be very bland. It made my salad oily with hardly any flavor at all...I had to add some balsamic vinaigrette to my salad to even be able to finish it. I'm not rating it because I only let it chill for about 30 minutes; maybe that was the issue, or the fact that I used the calculator to change the amount to 1 cup instead of 1/2. If it changes after refrigeration, I will update. Thanks!

Great flavor! I used it to top a strawberry-grapefruit salad as an appetizer and it was delicious! Thanks for a great recipe!

My style of dressing. It uses ingredients that I always have on hand, it is quick to put together and makes the perfect amount for a small family. This will become a standard in my house. Thanks for posting.

We really enjoyed this with our cocktails using fresh Italian bread cubs. I love the tartness in this. Very good and thanks for posting it.

A very delicious vinaigrette. Served this over lettuce and Belgian endive as a base for warm goat cheese and lardons and it was perfect. I must comment however, that my husband and I agree that the garlic flavor predominates; he didn't know it was honey/mustard until I told him. Nevertheless, a tasty dressing. Thanks for posting !
