I normally just dump olive oil and white vinegar on my salads but sometimes I'll try a store-bought one. Irresistables (food basics) sun-dried tomatoe with oregano isn't too bad. A little salty perhaps...but aren't they all? Not a fan of the really tangy ones like french or russian. I think I tried a couple of paul newmans dressings too. Can't say anything had a big effect on me. Guess I'll just stick with the good ol' olive oil and vinegar one. Anybody come across any interesting ones? Any home made recipes?

I bought a wonderful thing at Courtland bakery - Vidalia onion and poppy seed. I'm thinking to take a special drive back there to get it again (expensive as it is - $6.95 for a standard bottle size, if you can believe!)

Meantime, Courtland bakery also has the best bread - and crusty rolls - and cheese crowns. (plus hot pepperoni). So, if you're in the mood to treat yourself to some "special" foods - it's a good place to go. And, THEN - it's also a good thing that it's not right downtown - cause it ain't cheap!

On the other hand - for Greek salad fans, I use Greek spice - let it sit on the salad for a bit, and then pour on the olive oil and toss. Thought it was among the best, till I had that Vidalia and poppy seed!

I like the hot dry Hungarian sausage myself. Topped of with rum mountain balls

For my first wedding, Courtland Bakery supplied the cremesh -sp- for dessert. It's the lemon and pastry one. Yummy. Haven't had it in many years since then!!

i'm with you Observer. My mom has gotten the vidalia dressing at Costco in London and she loves it also, but it does at least come in a large size bottle. Down here I always buy Ken's Steak House Sweet Vidalia Onion dressing. It is just sooo good.

In a pinch I make a sour cream, sugar, red wine vinegar, mayo combo that is good, though a little sweet for lettuce salad, but absolutely great on coleslaw.

#1. Sweet Onion
#2. Raspberry Vinaigrette (sp?)

Not a huge salad person, but I am starting to eat them more often for lunch - the meal type salads with chicken, etc.

I usually make my own and have a wide variety. But in a pinch will use Renees. I add red wine and anchovie paste to the Caesar Dressing.

hi all ,
don't know the recipe they use,orhow to get it, but the dressing that is my favorite,is the blue cheese that is served by the flying "j" chain of truckstops in the us !
the ones on canada use a different recipe !

it has very large chunks of blue cheese in it,and makes me hungry just remembering it !
