Any new salad dressing recipies?

[kitkat]

hi everyone,  was just wondering if anyone has come up with any new salad dressing recipies???  I just can't make myself like that apple cider vin/mustard/stevia and water.  my first try I mixed it way tooo strong and every bite of my salad burned my throat.  I have always been a ranch lover of course, haven't we all!!  Anyway I know of course we can't have that , but I need to try something else?  or maybe I will have to just stick to lemon juice the whole time
Help!!!!thanks Kitkat

Try using less mustard (you are using prepared mustard from a jar, right?) If you are using mustard powder then of course it will burn you! I like to use a whole grain dijon and some regular dijon mustard, but you can experiment and buy different types and jars and see what appeals to you. Add a mini can of V8 juice to the mixture instead of the water. Be sure to count the calories from the V8 juice. This is a really yummy variation.

   Kathy , thanks for the advise.  I may try that v8 juice.  Last night I experimented a bit with my dressing and I used the same recipe but watered it down a bit more , made it a little bit sweeter with stevia and added a tablespoon of ketchup.  This time it was at least more bearable.  I'll just have to keep experimenting!! 

thanks again

Here is the most up to date version of my oil free/ fat free ACV dressing recipe. Using a cruet, you will only have to make it a couple times per week:

Use a salad dressing cruet that has markings for the amount of vinegar, water and oil. (There is no oil in this recipe of course)

Start by filling the Apple Cider Vinegar all the way past the vinegar line to the water line. Then put enough Dijon mustard (I like a combo of the whole seed kind and the plain dijon) so that the cruet is filled half way between the water line and the oil line. Then put a teaspoon of italian spices, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, 2 packets of stevia, 2 cloves of garlic minced. Then fill all the way past the oil line to mid-neck of the cruet with water or organic vegetable broth or mint tea or v8 juice. Shake well. Enjoy.
