"I L.O.V.E using Italian dressing, but the store bought kind can be a little salty. I found this on another website, and it is so good... you'll want to put it on everything. You can very the dry ingredients, I use whatever I think smells good and whatever I have. Instead of a fancy bottle, I use a left-over dressing bottle to store it... double the "mixing" recipe and it works fine. The dry should last you a long time."

ingredients

1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon onion powder (tastes fine without it)
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 tablespoon dried parsley
¹⁄₄ teaspoon celery salt or 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
2 teaspoons salt
¹⁄₄ cup white vinegar
²⁄₃ cup canola oil
2 tablespoons water

directions

1. In a small bowl, mix all the dry ingredients and set aside.
2. To prepare dressing, whisk together the remaining wet ingredients and 2 tablespoons of the dry.
3. Store your remaining dry ingredients in an air tight container, in your spice cabinet and use whenever you need a refill.
I double the recipe which makes 16 oz. or a regular dressing bottle full. No need to refrigerate, you can use it right away but will taste better tomorrow.
If you want to opt out of the fancy bottle, use a left over dressing bottle, and I write the wet ingredient list right on the bottle -- saves me having to save the recipe!
