2-1-1

Not to be confused with 9-1-1! But this is how we help our MOM remember the recipe.

I do buy some salad dressings, but if I want a simple vinegrette that won't mask the flavors of my actual salad ingredients, then this is what I turn to. It is so simple!

2 - oil (we usually use olive oil, but vegetable oil will do)
1 - apple cidar vinegar
1 - sugar

And add salt and pepper!

This recipe works well with a Tablespoon measurement (2T oil, 1T vinegar and 1T sugar). But we have been known to use a 1/4 cup and double the oil (1/2 cup), then one 1/4 cup vinegar and one 1/4 cup sugar.


This recipe is one of our Grandma Garvin's and certainly a keeper! In the summer when tomatoes are at their best we like to make a salad of baby lettuces, romas and red onion...yum!

If we have Garlic Garni (it's a seasoning) we will add a scant teaspoon to the dressing. Garlic Garni comes from Gilroy, CA...the garlic capital!
