Jul. 22, 2008 - Tightwad Tuesday - Salad Dressing recipes
For those of you who are interested in making your own laundry soap, but are a bit intimidated by the process, here is a video of somebody making it.
1-1/3 c. oil
½ c. vinegar
¼ c. grated parmesan cheese
2 t. salt
1 t. onion salt
½ t. pepper
½ t. dry mustard
¼ t. paprika
1 t. minced garlic
Mix and pour into a glass jar. Refrigerate for several hours and shake well before using.
Creamy Caesar Salad Dressing
1 c. mayonnaise
1 t. lemon juice (or juice of 2 lemons
1 t. salt
1 t. pepper
2 T. Worcestershire sauce
¾ c. grated parmesan cheese
¼ c. water
¼ t. garlic powder
Combine all ingredients and store in fridge.
Thousand Island Dressing
1-1/2 c. mayonnaise
3 T. catsup
1-1/2 t. relish
1 minced onion
½ t. pepper
2 T. lemon juice
½ t. salt
2-1/2 c. plain yogurt
Stir ingredients, adding the yogurt last. Chill at least 4 hours before serving.
Honey French Dressing
½ c. oil
½ c. lemon juice or cider vinegar
1 large onion, grated
¼ c. water
1/3 c. catsup
2-4 T. honey
¼ t. salt
½ t. celery salt
½ t. prepared mustard
½ t. garlic powder
½ t. onion powder
1 t. paprika
Mix all ingredients, place in covered jar, and shake well. Store in refrigerator.
As for how long they will keep -- I have had the Caesar dressing in the fridge for several weeks with no problem. I haven't had the others in there for very long, but I'm guessing they will also be fine for quite some time.

I have just started making our own salad dressing ( again!) I made a balsamic vinger one last week with tomatoes and peppers in it. It went really fast! I noticed that fresh dressing does not compare to the bottled type. It is very good! Thanks for the recipes!

Good Morning, Stacy!
Thank you so much for sharing your recipes for homemade salad dressings. Out of all the items I make from scratch, for whatever reason dressings were intimidating me. No longer! I've copied them, and am going to try them - Thank you!!! :)
Have a lovely day!

I bet the honey french dressing would go over big at my house. We've been eating a lot of salads as well.
(That and sandwiches) Nobody is really wanting hot meals. Works for me!!
I'll have to try it!!
Thanks for sharing,
Robyn

Oh, yay! I'm so excited to have your dressing recipes! I have none of those, but these look reasonable. :'D
How long will they "keep" in the fridge?
Thanks for sharing!

Oh good. I need some salad dressing recipes. Our lettuce is growing great and the girls and I are enjoying the salads. They like adding kidney beans to them.
