Thanks for posting the recipe. I'll have to add it with my other salad dressings.

I've been making all my own vinegar and oil salad dressings for many years because I can control the amount of sugar that I want to add to the dressing.

The only reason why I just bought two bottles of oil and vinegar dressings from the grocery store is that I needed the two small glass bottles.

I searched in the glass recyling bins in my apartment complex and I couldn't find any.

Does anyone have a tasty homemade Italian dressing recipe that tastes like the Good Seasons packet you mix yourself with oil and vinegar? Thank you in advance.

Using a jar with a tight-fitting lid, pour in 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup red wine vinegar and 1/4 cup lemon juice. Add 1 clove fresh garlic, crushed, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and fresh ground pepper (1/2 teaspoon). 1/4 teaspoon dry dill is a nice addition.

Shake well.

I don't know if this comes close to your 'Good Seasons' mix, but I find it quite nice. (10/05/2006)
