It only takes a couple of minutes to make your own delicious homemade salad dressing, as you can see from this recipe.
Ingredients:
1 clove of garlic, peeled but not chopped
¼ tsp salt
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 cup olive oil
Place all the ingredients except the oil in a shaker. I like the Zyliss Quick Blend Shaker
Leave the garlic whole; do not cut it up.Shake well. Add the oil, slowly, whisking as you add it. This can be refrigerated for a week.
Variations

Add ¼ cup of chopped herbs of your choice. (Rosemary, basil, thyme, chives, parsley, and dill are all good choices.)
Lime Viniagrette:
Subsitute lime juice for the red wine vinegar.
Walnut Viagrette:
Substitute balsamic vinegar for the red wine vinegar. Add 2 Tbsp minced walnuts.
