DELICIOUS! My DH raved about this dressing, too. It was a little spicy for the kids, but I could probably just add some yoghurt to turn it into a creamy version for them. I have to admit, I cheated, though. I used a jarred roasted red pepper (because I had it on hand), and used the liquid from the jar for both the oil and water. The resulting dressing was nice and thick and full of flavor. A little goes a long way, too! Definitely a keeper, thanks for posting!

Yikes!! My daughter had fun in PaintShop Pro!! What she can do with a picture.
My husband and I live in the "bush" and hour from the closest town. Life here is quiet, yet so much more busy than when we lived in the "city". We grow our own veggies, several kinds of berries, and grow lots of hard neck organic garlic. We have 60 chickens, 4 dogs, 1 cat, 1 bird. Quite the menagerie.
I make all my own breads, and sell them (along with the eggs). I have a group of friends whom I make extra goodies for.
