3 T olive oil
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp minced garlic


I like this one too. I usually add some Italian herbs to it.

Be careful with the olive oil. Rachel Ray notwithstanding, extra virgin can take over and dominate everything. On a Capri salad? Absolutely. In dressing? Maybe a blend. I like the one from Costco.


Oh, and you can try adding some minced shallots too.

For a salad like endive & avocado for example, half olive oil/half fresh lemon juice makes a simple and light dressing.

Get some really good balsamic to go with it. The thick aged stuff.

I've been making a lot of dressing with white balsamic vinegar lately. Just white balsamic, EVOO, salt and pepper, and a blob of dijon to emulsify and cut the sweetness of the white balsamic.

I am interested in many types of dressings. I am trying to eat more olive oil.
