I’ve played with different salad dressing recipes over the years, and found many I liked. This one is the easiest, though, because it has few ingredients, comes together quickly, and doesn’t need refrigeration. It’s has been my go-to recipe for more than a decade now, and I’ve taught my older kids to make it.
My 10-year-old (as of 2022) is especially partial to this dressing and makes it for us often.

This was lovely, I have always had a hard time getting them to taste just right but this was perfect and so easy….I used it on a greek style salad.
I have been making this recipe for a few months now and my husband and 2 and 5 year olds love it! I love its so much healthier than store bought! I double the recipe and it almost fills a normal sized salad dressing bottle. I store it in the cupboard, not the fridge, it congealed when I put it in the fridge:)
[…] take 5 minutes, maybe less, to make up a bottle of salad dressing! I have a go-to recipe for a simple Italian-style vinaigrette I make […]

How long will this dressing last? (Meaning how long before it goes bad, not how long until we devour it. :))
