Pepper Parmesan Salad Dressing

Mom2Rose's Note:

I have been making this dressing for almost 10 years now. It is incredible and very easily tailored to everyone's liking. You can add more of certain ingredients and omit the ones you don't want or don't have available. My measurements are somewhat approximate as I have gotten used to just shaking the spice bottles over the mixing bowl and adding more of certain ingredients to get it to my taste. So by all means, use the mayo/milk as a base for your special dressing and run with it!

• Total Time: 5 mins

• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

• ½ tablespoon garlic salt
• ½ tablespoon paprika

Directions:

1. In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients listed above.

Delicious! Sorry to the cheese snobs, but all I had in the house was the stuff in the green can, so that's what I used. ;-) I did add about a quarter teaspoon of Splenda to give it a bit of that hint of sweet that store bought dressings have so the fam would eat it. Tasting it as I went in the bowl it seemed too "dilly," but once it's over lettuce it goes perfectly. Thanks for a great recipe!

Wonderful dressing. Instead of garlic salt, I used garlic powder. It was very yummy. Great taste with the parmesan cheese. Thanks Mom2Rose :) Made for I Recommend tag game

Delicious salad dressing! I loveee the black pepper mixed with the mayo (I used Vegenaise). Yummy. All the other additions added extra flavor layers. I'm so glad I have a jar that I can use all week! Thank you Sarah!
