This dressing goes together quickly and makes a delicious dressing for a salad of mixed greens, strawberries, toasted pecans and feta cheese. Made for ZWT 5 -
So quick, so easy, and so delcious! I used bottled orange juice (all I had on hand) and substituted Madarin rind for orange and added parsley (as I had left over chopped on hand), but everthing else as per recipe, although I used a different variety of salad dressing mix (wasn't sure of the brand here in Oz !) DS thought it was absolutely terrific, and went so well with the salad, and believe me, he is a connoisseur of salad dressings!!!! He loves his salads and dressings! The rest of us really enjoyed this dressing over the salad, which I added some mandarin too, just to carry through the citrus taste! Great dressing JanuaryBride, I have been commanded to make thids dressing again by DS. And I am sure there will no complaints from the rest of the family either! Thanks a keeper here! -
Have been on the lookout for good tasting citrus dressing & this one might just be the one from now on (but then I'm a fickle chef!) ~ Made enough to use over a salad as well as a marinade for some chicken breasts, & it was GREAT both ways! I added just a bit more of the juice & zest from the orange than called for, but then we really enjoy things orange! Thanks for A WONDERFUL KEEPER!
