dinner.

i think. that this will be dinner tonight.

i know. it's the olive garden. but i'll fess up. i've always loved their salad. and i found the recipe for their salad dressing awhile back. and it's good. and easy. and even dh. thought it tasted like the old garden. so there. try it. it's easy. and good.

olive garden salad dressing.

ingredients:

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup white vinegar
1 tsp vegetable oil
2 Tbls. corn syrup
2 Tbls. Parmesan cheese
2 Tbls. Romano cheese
1/4 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp. parsley flakes
1 Tbl. lemon juice

mix all of the above in a blender. then taste it! if it's a bit too tart (from the vinegar, of course) pump it up with a little bit of sugar - a teaspoon or so. just taste it after you add some so you don't add to much! serve it over the lettuce of your choice. don't forget to add super thinly sliced red onions, crutons and chopped banana peppers and tomatoes and black olives.
