This French drsg is delicious. I subbed one T. of an erythritol/ monkfruit/stevia blend for the honey and added one tsp. of Worcestershire. Will make again. Thanks.

Definitely making your Tex-Mex salad today since I took out a container of your ranch beans from the freezer and was puzzling what to make. Could you tell us how to make the Catalina version of the dressing? Like a few other commenters,  preferred that over the French growing up. Thanks  Jami!

Life savior!  I need something healthy for my picky spouse!

I was so happy to come across this! I did have to modify slightly, as I did not have fresh garlic and onions in the house. I used about a TBS of onion powder and 1 tsp garlic powder. I also did half honey and half dark maple syrup for the sweetener. I loved this recipe and plan to make it frequently! (Modified and original, too). Thanks for sharing!!
