Olive Garden Salad Dressing

I am a big fan of Olive Garden Salad dressing. Give me a bowl of soup, some bread sticks, and their salad and I am a happy girl. I was excited when I found a copy cat version of their dressing that I had not tried. All of the ones I had tried didn’t quite compare to the real deal. I tried this one and after a few tweaks to the recipe, I think it is pretty darn close.
However, right after trying this recipe I had heard that Sam’s Club was now an exclusive carrier of Olive Garden’s dressing now available in a bottle. I went the next day to buy it. It was right around $7 for 2 bottles that are each 20 oz. So you can make this version of Olive Garden salad dressing at home or get it in a bottle from Sam’s Club. Either way it is so delicious. Just remember to get the lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, olives, croutons, and banana peppers (I skip these) to make your own at home version of Olive Garden’s Salad. Oh, and the Parmesan too, if you like that on there also!
