Can’t wait to try this recipe. I have missed Catalina Dressing and am eager to try it!
Could a small amount of this recipe be used over FP or E salads? It only has a half a cup of oil.
It would have to be like a really really small amount… probably no more than 1-2 teaspoons.
I reduce the oil by 1/3 and add water and a little gluccie for the difference…
Hi!I miss going to arby,s for their beef’ncheddar. The sauce on it always tastes like Catalina dressing to me. I was wondering if I could possibly use your dressing on beef and cheddar with this salad?
OH yum… that’s a great idea!!
What can be used in place of red wine vinegar?
hmmm… maybe straight vinegar… it just won’t have the same taste.
My favorite salad!
My 4 year old grandson loves it to. He calls it Catarina dressing because of Daniel Tigers friend Catarina!
Finally made your Catalina dressing. It is fantastic and I’m so excited! Will not buy commercial Catalina dressing ever again… your recipe was quick to make. Thank you!
I made it! What a great memory of this salad dressing! I love it so much! I made it exactly as written and it is SO DELICIOUS! Thank you so much! Hugs! Sharon
I love this dressing!!! I used it on a spinach salad and it was delicious!!! I used olive oil and didn’t have any onion powder, so I used onion flakes and mixed it well with my Ninja. Since I’m the only one in my house eating it, I had plenty left over. I’d mixed it using my smallest Ninja container and just stored it in the fridge in that. I’ve found that it does thicken up quite a bit after refrigeration, but I just mixed it up again for about 3 or 4 minutes and it thinned it perfectly. And….It’s even better after having been in the fridge a few days! It’s my new favorite salad dressing!!
Sarah!! It’s EXCELLENT!! Perfect lunch!
This is the best dressing ever!!! Thank you, thank you!!!
This is our favorite salad dressing! Everyone loves it that I serve it to.
