I searched for recipes using basil because I have a bumper crop. I loved this dressing so much I'd make it even if I had to buy the basil...it is very tasty. I served it with chicken and pasta with this sauce, which is delicious "Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto". I love summer foods!!

We loved this! The dressing has a bit of heat and a richness of flavor that is just great. Will make this again and again. May make the dressing for other uses, as well. Thank you for posting this.

This was absolutely delicious, even made with supermarket tomatoes that were only moderately flavorable. The dressing made up for it, but I can't wait to try it again with the wonderful tomatoes I get from the farmer's market.
