  1. I made this for my two picky granddaughters. They loved it! I used soy sauce and a splash of worchestershire sauce instead of anchovy paste as I didn't have any. I did not have time to chill it for 24 hrs, but did chill it for 6 and we all enjoyed it. Thanks, Kittencal! Carole in Orlando
     
  2. Very simple dressing using ingredients I almost always have on hand. The additions definitely improve the flavor of the bottled dressing. I used splenda and low-fat mayo to help with the calories. My DD#2 (9 ys. old) loves salad and gave this dressing a thumbs up!
     
  3. I made a big mistake when making this dressing...I only made half a recipe! It was drizzled over 4 salads and then my guests kept asking what was in the dressing that made it taste so good, less "bitter" than most Italian dressings. I sent them home with the leftovers and the recipe, so now I'm faced with making another batch for myself...and I will. I didn't need a food processor, but simply put my ingredients in a handy jar and shook it all up until it was blended. This is not the healthiest dressing I make, but it's truly delicious on a salad of romaine, tomatoes, fennel and olives. Thanks once again Kits for making me look like a good cook.

Tweaks

  1. I used an Italian dressing packet and mixed by directions, using white balsamic vinegar and Hollywood Safflower oil. Let that sit overnight, then mixed to taste with Marie's Caesar dressing. I am not a big salad fan, but, I was dipping my vegetables and my lettuce leaves in the dressing! I can't believe I never tried this before!! Goes exceptionally well with an Everything but the Kitchen Sink salad, doesn't need to be drowned either.
