Bottled dressings are expensive AND full of additives. This golden Italian dressing is made in minutes from pantry spices and tastes incredible.

Golden Italian Salad Dressing Indregients:

½ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon homemade Italian seasoning blend (our homemade blend recipe can be found on our website as well)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 clove minced garlic
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1–2 teaspoons maple syrup

Store in the fridge.

Just an FYI - this makes a great chicken marinade! Just saying...

Fabric softener is one of the most toxic products in your laundry room. Here's what I make instead - costs almost nothing & smells amazing.

You only need a few ingredients 👇
✔️ ¼ cup all-natural hair conditioner
