I am looking for a BOTTLE of salad dressing I can buy (I know you can make it -- if there is an easy recipe I'd consider it but really love to have it in a bottle in fridge) that doesn't have HFCS and other junk in it. Anything?
TIA!

Easy peasy and SO yummy:

1/2 C EVOO
3 T lemon juice(I use concentrate)
2 T balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic minced(I use the Pampered Chef tool)

Stir and enjoy. I make mine once/week. It keeps well in the fridge.

After a few times, it becomes second hand and is so worth the effort.

Ok I will try it! Need to get a glass jar thing for it.
Thanks!

Annie's Naturals dressings are really good. I also use the Good Seasons bottle and mix sometimes.

Newman's Own is yummy.

I also like Marzetti- in the refrigerated section. Many of them are "natural" now.

If you have a TJs a lot of their salad dressings qualify. I'm sure WF also.

I like trader joes tuscan italian w/balsamic! I am on the hunt for a good ranch dressing for my boys... we always used Hidden valley but I'd like to find something yummy and not full of MSG and whatnot!

I really like Naturally Fresh brand. It is in the refrigerator section by the salad stuff at my store. The Balsamic Viniagrette is the best bottled that I've ever had.
Some of the other flavors do have corn syrup, but the Balsamic Viniagrette does not.

I would say anything Trader Joe's, or Annie's is a great natural alternative. Also, one of our favorites is seasoned rice vinegar with EVOO. Be sure to put the vinegar on first, or the oil won't allow it to stick. Pour a moderate amount of both on top of salad, toss. Yummy.

We've been doing one lately that we love...
1/4 c oil
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons vinegar (we use apple cider or white wine vinegar depending on our mood)
1 teaspoon salt
dash of pepper

super easy and good!

Brianna's makes great dressings....every flavor I've tried is good. It's all natural....just not low-fat/calories :-(
