"Darn" Salad Dressing

We really like eating salads, especially during the summer. Its an easy way of getting lots of yummy veggies all in one meal and it also helps me loose that baby weight ( I have WAYS to go).

The name of this salad dressing came from my mother-in-law. She was getting so tired of making it that one day she said, "Damn Salad Dressing" as she was making it. It was really funny since she is not one to talk that way. Anyway, we really like this dressing and it makes salads so YUMMY! Hope you like it too.


"Darn" Salad Dressing:

In a jar mix:

1/2 cup Olive Oil
3 Tbsp Lemon juice
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
10 drops Tabasco sauce

I generally make double the recipe and add a lot more pepper than it calls for. Its very easy and really good. I also like to "spice up" my salad by adding fresh basil.

Sounds yummy can't wait to try it. question: do your kids eat salad? I have not been able to get my kids to even try it.

Wendy- My kids like lettuce, carrots, and broccoli (all raw). They also like basil and other spices. Mylo likes tomatoes, as well. So, I would say yes they do like salad and eat it every once in a while.

Wow, I will have to try this out. As you know, I have never met a salad I didn't like (except potato).
