COPYCAT ITALIAN SALAD DRESSING



Copycat Italian Salad Dressing image

My family prefers the store brand of Italian dressing to any of the name brands. They all pretty much taste the same and have the same ingredients. This is a copycat of their dressing using mostly ingredients from the cabinet most people keep on hand or can find easily. The water makes it stretch a little further for those on a tight budget, but you might also like it without.

MARGIE'S POTATO SALAD (WITH ITALIAN DRESSING)



Margie's Potato Salad (With Italian Dressing) image

This is my mom's potato salad recipe, which I just love. I haven't seen one here exactly like it. It uses italian dressing to give it flavor, and doesn't have pickles or mustard. The key to an excellent final product is letting the Italian dressing sit for a couple of hours and soak up the flavors before adding the mayo. My favorite dressing to use is the kind you make yourself from a package, adding oil, water and vinegar - just be sure you've made it up ahead of time so it is full of flavor by the time you need it. Cooking time is marinating time.
