My DH created this page for me compiling the different salad dressing recipes I have made so far.  I originally had them listed under Sauces, Marinades and Salad Dressings.  The problem with that, as my dear daughter pointed out, is it brought up the salad name, not a specific salad dressing.  Much to her frustration, last night, she ended up using a bottled dressing - yuck!  So here you go dear daughter - this one is for you!  A list of salad dressings that I will update as new recipes are created.
A Sweet Greek Oregano Vinaigrette: (MARINATED GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH A COMPOUND BUTTER AND A GREEK VINAIGRETTE)
2 Tblsp. Red Wine Vinegar
Extra Virgin Olive Oil - a 3 to 1 ratio with the Red Wine Vinegar
1 big tsp. Dried Greek Oregano
2 finely minced garlic cloves
1 tsp. honey
salt and pepper to taste
Add all of the ingredients to a jar, and shake up well.  (I found this dressing needed a little extra splash of Red Wine Vinegar and some extra salt, so check for seasonings) Refrigerate for a couple of hours so the flavors can come together.  Serve over a fresh garden salad.

salt and pepper
1 tsp. honey

HOMEMADE RANCH DRESSING (HOMEMADE RANCH DRESSING)
The first time I made homemade Ranch dressing, it was good, but I still felt the need to tweek the recipe.  What a lovely dressing this turned out to be!  Most recipes call for buttermilk, I used Kefir milk and it turned out great.
1 Tblsp. finely diced shallot
1 finely minced garlic clove
2 Tblsp. finely chopped chives
1 rounded tsp. Dill Weed
1 tsp. dried Basil
1/2 tsp. dried Thyme
1/2 - 2/3 cup Kefir milk (or buttermilk) (I used 2/3 cup which made the dressing on the runny side - but we liked the consistency)
4 heaping Tblsp. Mayonnaise
1 rounded tsp. Dijon Mustard
1 Tblsp. fresh Lemon Juice
salt and pepper to taste
Dice up the shallot, and finely mince the garlic and finely chopped chives.  Add to a bowl.  Add the remaining ingredients, whisking well to incorporate.  Transfer to a pourable salad dressing jar.  (I use jam jars - they work great!)  This dressing tastes better if made in the morning, to have with the evening meal.

Fresh Cracked Pepper
