DH loves this salad dressing. That's rare, he is picky. So easy to prepare, and a change from the "usual" lettuce salad with ranch dressing that he usually likes. Thanks for posting!

Thanks for the dressing recipe. I was already making a spinach strawberry salad with slivered almonds but wasn't sure what to put on it. I wasn't sure about mixing vinegars but it turned out fine. :o)
