DELICIOUS & CREAMY FRENCH DRESSING image

This dressing is quick and so easy to make, that after making this a few times, you won't need to look at the recipe! It doesn't resemble the traditional red-orange colored French Dressing, but you will love the flavor and what it does for a bowl of mixed salad vegetables!

Categories     Dressings

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 c mayonnaise (not salad dressing like miracle whip..should be real mayonnaise)
2 Tbsp sugar ( can use splenda - use one good slightly heaping tbsp)
2 Tbsp cider vinegar or can use white wine vinegar
1 Tbsp milk
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp dry mustard
2 Tbsp tomato ketchup
1/4 tsp salt (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients and stir it well until everything is well mixed. Keep stored in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid in the refrigerator until serving. This makes about a cup and a half.
  • 2. This dressing is very good on a tossed salad, but it does not look like the French Dressing you buy at the store. It is more of a pinkish color, and not the bright red-orange color of most commercially made French Dressings. But I can assure you, it is delicious!
  • 3. Bon Apetit' Y'all!
