Homemade Italian Salad Dressing - Easy to Make - Gluten free, Dairy free, Sugar free (THM-S) - MamaShire.comThis is best homemade Italian Salad Dressing, hands down, that we’ve had. Everyone in our family agrees, this one’s a winner. I’ve tried different recipes to make my own dressing before, but they never hit that sweet spot like this recipe does.

Let’s Make Homemade Italian Salad Dressing!

Nutritional yeast gives this salad dressing an extra boost in flavor with it’s cheesy flavor. If you haven’t tried nutritional yeast in yet, now’s the time. You could use Italian seasoning in place of the basil and oregano, if that is what you have on hand, but I think the combination of those two herbs are just right in this recipe.

It’s so easy to make – just put all of your ingredients in a Ball jar, put on a lid and shake. Measure your liquids right into the jar using the measurement marks on the side and you won’t have any extra measuring cups to wash.

    I’m assuming that is “1/2 CUP” of ACV? It just says “1/2 ACV”. This looks good – I’m going to try it as I will only eat ranch, and I need to find something lighter.

      Nevermind, now I read the directions, and it is clear that it is 1/2 cup!

    Have you ever tried using stevia as a substitute for the erythritol or xylitol? I have that on hand and will give it a try, but am wondering how much to use. A little stevia extract goes a long way!

      Hi Donna, I would think the stevia would work. Just start with a pinch and see how it goes. It just needs a little sweetness to combat the tartness of the apple cider vinegar and make it all yummy.

      Hi Sandi, I’m not really sure what you could use as a substitute. It gives a nice cheesy flavor. It might be fine to leave it out until it arrives.

      I think about two weeks is the longest I have left it in the fridge. It normally doesn’t last that long though. 🙂

    I’ve been trying to eat more leafy greens and I needed a good dressing recipe. I just now made this and OH MY WORD. I could eat a whole bag of spinach if this was on it!!! It taste like a pizza-flavored Goldfish!

    I love marinading chicken and am following the THM plan. Could you use this for a marinade?
