Submitted by seashell

"I needed a salad dressing for my lunch salad. Felt like something lemon-y, so I combined the lemon juice with the garlic and olive oil. Had a small piece of cheese, so I grated it up and added it."

I have made this for P A R TY and its sitting ready for our salad tonight. I tried it on a tomatoe before putting it away and it was yummy. I used Parmesan cheese as well Thanks for posting.

I loved this! I too made a half batch which worked out great. I hard a little chunk of asiago cheese left in the fridge so I grated that in. I think this would be wonderful on pasta salad too. Thanks Seashell!!

Even though I cut the recipe in half, I used the full quantity of parmesan. This is a wonderful dressing - so easy to make and so tasty! If you can make such a delicious salad dressing at home, cheaply, why go and buy the expensive bottled brands? I whisked this in my mini Moulinex food-processor and the parmesan helped everything to emulsify. What was left separated in the fridge later but quickly re-emulsified when whisked again. Really delicious!
