A good salad is one of the most satisfying meals there is, but not everyone if a fan of them for one reason or another. Whether they don’t view them as a square meal, usually serve them only as a side or just don’t like many of the veggie's watery and neutral tastes.
If either of those describes you, don’t push it aside just yet. Make a loaded salad with plenty of cheese, protein and dress it with this tasty, flavorful dressing and you might just sing a different tune. It is fantastically flavorful and smooth. You may change your mind after giving it another try with this homemade salad dressing. Lately, for me, the key to a delicious salad is quality homemade dressings and I think this one is definitely a winner!
This dressing will put a new spin on your salads. It is also great as a dip for vegetables, salad wraps, chicken strips or whatever else you like to dunk into a scrumptious Caesar Dressing. It will make you reconsider your view of having salad as a meal and add more nutrition to your diet. Enjoy!

Do you also add fresh pressed garlic to the dressing? It is pictured on the photo, but not on the ingredient list.
I made this recipe without the garlic, and it was good. Then I went back and looked over it and noticed the garlic in the picture.

Thanks for sharing! Do you by any chance know, how long can it last being refregerated?
valya'stasteofhome.com says
The salad can be stored in the fridge with out dressing for up to 6 hrs. With dressing it has to be served emediatly, since it will water. Thanks for such an awesome question! 🙂
Tanya says
Sorry, I meant to say how long can dressing last in refrigerator and how can it be stored? Will just mason jar work? Thnx sweetie!

You can store it in any glass ranch bottle or in a glass mason jar for up to 2 weeks in the fridge. Great question! I hope this clarifies a little bit more and thanks for your comment!!!
