Maybe I shouldn't be reviewing this actual recipe, since I made changes. I like a really tangy dressing and not too sweet, so here's what I did and it came out pretty well. I used 1/8 c sugar, added a couple TBSP of white wine vinegar in addition to the cider vinegar, to get more zing without more sweetness. I only used 1/4 cup oil and canola mayo in an attempt to lower the fat. So, I guess I am not reviewing this recipe, but my own....LOL! Thank you! We are going to have this on taco salad tonight

Just perfect in everyway, Sharon! I, (we) loved this. I did follow this exactly except for one small alteration, I was running out of ketchup (who RUNS out of ketchup?) so I had to use some chili sauce and mixed together with the last of the ketchup so it made 1/2 cup. Really, truly a wonderful, full of flavor dressing that just brings joy to your mouth and stomach. Brilliant! Thanks so much, Sharon! March 2009

Made for I Recommend Tag. What a great salad dressing. I'm always looking for different dressing and this one was different than any that I have tried so far. Thanks for posting this Sharon!
