Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise 

“This is a wonderful dressing, easy to make and adjust for smaller quantities,” according to one Allrecipes community member. “I like to add a little balsamic vinegar to it.”

“I’ve been using this dressing for years and it is excellent — perfect for those that enjoy a zesty, flavorful dressing,” raves another community member. “I took the time to do some math to scale the recipe down to about a cup total yield, hope this helps: 6 tbsp. olive oil; 1 tsp. each garlic powder, dried oregano, basil; 3/4 tsp. each black pepper, salt, onion powder, Dijon mustard; 8 tbsp red wine vinegar.”

“Delicious dressing, an absolute keeper,” says . “I've made this dressing many times now and received compliments on it. The only modification I make is to use the same amount of olive oil and red wine vinegar.”
