I only recently went to osf, had the dressing, and had to find the recipe, this is it!!!! Everyone raves over this, its fresh, and so different. Ive made 2 batches so far in a week, had company over and they inhaled it. Thanks so much for this wonderful recipe.

My husband and I have been going to the Old Spaghetti Factory since we first started dating, and we've always LOVED their creamy pesto dressing. We've loved it so much that I've often thought about replicating it at home, but never tried--until now. Since the recipe already called for 1 cup mayonnaise, I didn't think the 3/4 cup oil sounded right, so I omitted it. I followed the rest of the recipe exactly and couldn't believe what I was tasting. It tasted just like the Old Spaghetti Factory dressing!! I think if you add the extra oil it will be too oily. I'm not watching my calories either; I just think it's a matter of taste. Without the oil, we think it is exactly like the original. Thank you for a great recipe!!

I always loved this dressing and was so happy to find the recipe. It is so yummy everyone in my house loved it even my picky little sister. The only thing is I dont think it makes 20 servings more like 6 , and I didnt use any oil either but came out perfect. Thanks for posting I make this all the time about once a week! I dont even buy dressing anymore!
