      Almost the same, but I still really liked it. I won't buy store brands again. I did add a pinch of sugar. So over all it is a really good recipe.

      This is very close to Olive Garden's! It's not *exact*, but I suspect they add glucose and goodness knows what else. I added just a pinch of sugar, and it balanced out the acidity beautifully. I used homemade mayo instead of miracle whip. If I could I'd rate this as a 4 1/2, but I gave 5 stars because it's really very close to the original and it's excellent as a stand alone dressing recipe.

      Quite good. Maybe not Olive Garden but still a good solid dressing. I replaced the Miracle Whip with Mayo, as I cannot stand the taste and I omit the water.

      Made this according to direcions and loved it, so much better then the bottled dressings I use, but not exactly like Olive Gardens, but really close.' I have gotten special requests to make it again by my 6 year old grand daughter, who love Olive Gardens Salad.

      We love Olive Garden so I thought I would try this. I was not disappointed. This was good and different from the salad dressings we usually use. Thanks for the recipe.

      This was really good! I did leave out the lemon juice..I was out, and I added a pinch of sugar. It made quite a bit...used an entire bag of salad mix and it was still pretty saturated. I think this is as close as it's going to come to Olive Garden and I'll take what I can get. Totally beats bottled italian dressing with parmesan cheese, which is what I have been substituting with! Thanks for posting!

      Probably not exactly like Olive Garden's but still a good Italian dressing.

      Pretty good salad dressing, not sure if it is a true copy of Olive Garden's, been a while since I've been there, but good in it's own right. I doubled the recipe and got a lot! Didn't need the water. I might try mayo instead of Miracle Whip next time. Thx for posting . . . Janet

      I didn't think that this was a great copy cat recipe but thought that the flavour was good. I do not buy Miracle Whip so I substituted mayonaise - that may have made the taste closer??? I thought that I should add a pinch of sugar when I tasted it but it did not make that much difference. The rest of the family enjoyed this recipe and I'll make it again with white balsamic vinegar to cut the tanginess and add some sweetness.

      I enjoyed this dressing with lettuce, endive and beets from the garden. I didn't have Miracle whip so used mayo with a little sugar. Thanks! :) Made for the IRON CHEF game.

      This is a pretty good imitation. I was out of white wine vinegar and had to replace it with red wine and I never have miracle whip, so used mayo. It came out a bit tart, but that is probably because of my substitutions. It had a great flavor and consistency.
