Very, very good, although I cut back on the sugar by 1/2 cup. Start at a cup and add sugar to taste. This really makes too much dressing, next time I may cut the dressing in half.

This was a great recipe! The dressing makes a ton, I used splenda instead of sugar otherwise followed recipe. I made for PAC Spring 2010 and it is a winner!
