A fresh garden salad with homemade Italian-style dressing is the perfect accompaniment to my special lasagna. Nicely seasoned with garlic, herbs and a hint of lemon, the dressing is our family's favorite. As soon as the jar is empty, I make more. -Evelyn Gebhardt, Kasilof, Alaska

I tired this recipe for the first time today for my book club. I made it exactly per directions. I want a dressing to make a statement. This did not do it. It was very bland. I will not make again.
