Vinaigrette Salad Dressing

Which version of Vinaigrette Salad Dressing pleases you most? Classic, simple, creamy, balsamic or half oil and vinegar? I prefer the half and half for a zestier taste.

Method for all

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well or use a jar and shake well. Serve over salad or vegetables. Refrigerate extra dressing.

Half Oil and Vinegar

This is my favorite salad dressing and it's so easy to make!
