Used olive oil mayo, coconut vinegar, a bit of dijon mustard and a little less sugar. This has become our new favorite dressing for slaw. Can't eat pulled pork without it. Thanks for another great recipe.

We loved this dressing! Great on a salad with fresh apples diced up. I used low fat may and fat free half and half....Thanks Kittencal for another great recipe!

Hubby is in love with this dressing! He rarely says more than "it's good" when I ask him how he likes something, but this one he's actually requested a few times. It's a tad sweet for my tastes as written, I may play around with reduced the sugar a tad. I used Reduced Fat Miracle Whip and milk. Thanks for another great recipe Kittencal!

This recipe is fantastic. It is much better than any of the store bought bottles I had sitting in my fridge. I did use slightly less sugar than the recipe called for as I usually find things too sweet. My teenage son loved it. He would ask me to make salads at supper so we could have it. So that is a ringing endorsemnet.
