HOMEMADE SALAD DRESSINGS

 

Making salad dressing from scratch is nearly as fast and easy as shaking up a store-bought bottle, and the taste is phenomenally better than even the most “gourmet” jar of blue cheese dressing.

It’s easier, though, to quit buying bottled dressings when you don’t even need to consult a recipe before shaking up tonight’s salad.
