Pasta Salad w/ Italian Dressing
Convenience foods have gotten pretty out of hand. Gone are the days of knowing how to make anything from scratch. Little did I know how easy it is to make homemade Italian dressing.
Ingredients:
Olive oil
Vinegar (balsamic, apple cider, white)
Lemon juice
Garlic
Sugar, optional
Parsley
Basil
Oregano
Red pepper
Salt
Pepper
Everything is to taste so adjust as needed, there's really no right or wrong way to make it. Omit ingredients you don't like and add more of the ones you do. Suggested use: Italian Pasta Salad.
Homemade means no sketchy, artificial ingredients or preservatives. FYI: Lemon juice Is a natural preservative
