This super-quick salad dressing is a breeze to shake up when you're in a hurry. "It's refreshing, slightly sweet flavor compliments fresh lettuce and crisp bacon bits quite nicely," remarks Lois Fetting of Nelson, Wisconsin.

I was hesitant to try this because it smelled way too "vinegary" for my tastes. However, I went ahead and ate it and it was so good! I didn't add the bacon, but did add cheddar cheese. I will definitely be making this again! So glad I tried it!
