This Classic Creamy Italian Salad Dressing is a recipe for the books! It’s got all the classic Italian dressing flavours and it goes perfectly with any garden salad. Add a sprinkling of fresh Parmesan and you’ll be in salad heaven!
Mason jars are a great kitchen tool to have on hand for recipes like this Classic Creamy Italian Salad Dressing. They’re airtight, so you don’t have to worry about spills, they’re dishwasher safe and easy to clean, and they’re great for more than just salad dressings – I use them for smoothies, homemade jams, soups, and other food storage.

Recipe Notes
This salad dressing keeps in the fridge for up to 5 days, so make it a day or two ahead of serving to save time!
