This was a fantastic dressing!! I used a light olive oil instead of canola oil to keep this Paleo. The orange and apple cider were the perfect amount...will definitely keep this on hand!

Very nice dressing! I cut the recipe in half to use some leftover OJ and switched the oil to olive as I prefer it over canola in dressings. The only fresh herb I had on hand was parsley so that's what I used. Next time I would cut back on the oil just a little as it was a little oily for my taste (I often cut the oil down in dressings). Thanks for sharing Katzen! [Made for PAC Spring 2011]

This was a good light dressing. I did find it a bit sweet and we like sweet. It just didn't have that wow factor. I used white vinegar, mint & parsley for the fresh herbs and some dried chives. Served on a salad. I doubt I will make this again. Made for 1~2~3 Hits March 2010 ~ It's Not Easy Being Green!!!

We loved this light dressing. The honey is missing from the ingredient list BUT it is also missing from the flyer ( I have it and checked LOL) I made a HALF batch and used 2 -3 tablespoons of honey . I also used fresh squeezed OJ but added more probably about 1/3 cup in total for a half batch. I found the white wine vinegar was overpowering BUT I think that was because I used fresh squeezed OJ and not the store bought kind. So next time and there will be a next time I will add the vinegar last and a bit at a time . I served this over a very simple salad of baby romaine , mandrin orange segments and green onions.
