Ingredients

  • 1 .7 oz pkg Italian dressing mix
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil can substitute canola oil
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp dried Italians seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 - 1 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to a large jar. Add the lid, close, and shake until all the ingredients have evenly combined.
  • Use and enjoy!

Notes

  • If you don't want to shake the dressing in a jar to combine, add the ingredients to a large mixing bowl then whisk together until evenly combined.
  • This makes roughly 1 cup of dressing, and 1/4 cup is a serving size, though you can use as much or as little as you like.
  • I like to give this a quick taste before I add the salt. Sometimes the Italian dressing packets are fairly salty and it may be salty enough. It really depends on brand and your preferences.
