I picked this recipe for my daughter since creamy Italian is her fave. I added a little onion powder, parm cheese and red pepper. My husband said it was the best dressing he'd ever tasted. My daughter took one bite and said we'd never need to buy dressing again. This is a keeper.

I followed this recipe exactly and it turned out really good. I was impressed, but my husband and I thought it was too sweet. The only thing I would change is to add a little less sugar, I might only add 2 teaspoons next time and see how that works.

I loved it. I used non-fat yogurt instead of mayo, and cut the sugar by just a little bit, and it was great. Very good for you and lots of flavor!

Delicious! Even a friend who hates onions raved about it- then I told her there were onions in it! I used Mayan sweet, and since my onion was medium, I used about a third of it. I will make this again and again.

Excellent. I made it as directed - maybe using a little more (homemade) Italian seasoning a called for. :) This makes a wonderfully thick, creamy dressing. If you would like a thinner dressing, add buttermilk until desired consistency.Thanks for posting!!

I did scale this down to make only 4 servings (which was really only 2) and i used miracle whip instead of mayo. other then that, i followed the recipe exactly. At first it tasted way to mayo-ee for me so i added another two tsp of red wine vinegar, some lemon juice, and a little bit of EVOO to thin it out. Very good! Thanks Cathy!

This was wonderful, but you defintely need to be cautious of the amount of onion. It can be very over powering. But, overall I loved it!

I've never made homemade dressing before, but this turned out great! I used my food processor to mix all the ingredients, but I wasn't able to get the onion quite as finely chopped as I'd like (my food processor has limited attachments). Maybe a blender would be better.

Mmmmm! This dressing was just delicious. I followed the recipe as written, and it didn't need a thing changed. I definitely recommend using the onion (a half of a small mild one), because it adds so much flavor. Even my husband and son (who have very different tastes and both picky) loved it!

Hey Cathy, New to the site but been around the culinary world for quite awhile, this is one of the simple basic recipes that really hits home, I substituted the onion with a 1/4 shallot. Thank you! Fred

I think this should be called Creamy Onion Dressing. If you really like the taste of raw onion, I'm sure you will love this dressing! Unfortunately I do not. I used about 1/4 cup of a white onion, and it was waaaay to strong for my liking.

Great recipe and very versatile. I make it all the time for at-home salads. I save myself from having to wash out a blender by just mixing the ingredients in a cup and leaving out the onion. Voila; instant italian!

This recipe was just what I was looking for. The taste is almost identical to the house dressing at my favorite local italian restaurant. Wonderful!

We followed the recipe exactly. This was very good. We put it on a basic tossed salad with head lettuce and a bit of romaine. It is a bit sweet.

I have been making this dressing for probably 30 years now. I got it from the label on the mayo jar. It is absolutely the BEST! I do mine in the blender, and I use a little less than 1/2 cup chopped onion. Always a white onion, never a red one. As Cathy stated, if you will follow the recipe, and use the ingredients listed, you will get a great dressing. If you choose to use (for instance) garlic salt instead of garlic powder, and then omit the salt, the dressing just will not turn out like it should. I have a tendency to "guess" at some of my measurements when cooking certain dishes, however, there are some recipes that need to be adhered to exactly in order for it to turn out. This is one of those recipes. I make a simple salad using mixed greens, grape tomatoes, and black olives. I pour the desired amount of dressing over the salad and mix to coat. Then I sprinkle it with a little dried dill weed. It is a perfect match with any Italian dish.

I made it per the instructions and the set of tips that Cathy posted afterwards and really enjoyed it. I ended up using Splenda rather than regular sugar and I added a little more vinegar to taste and tried to be conservative with the (yellow) onion.

Unbelievably good!! I just made it a few minutes ago because every dressing in my fridge looked incredibly unappetizing. This was just perfect. I eased up on the onion, only because I didn't have much, as well as the red wine vinegar. I also used 1/2 c light mayo and 1/2 miracle whip light because that was all I had. Really fantastic stuff! Thanks!
