Copycat Italian Salad Dressing

Recipesfull introduces to you: Salad Dressing Recipes. (Copycat Italian Salad Dressing). My family prefers the store brand of Italian dressing to any of the name brands. They all pretty much taste the same and have the same ingredients. This is a copycat of their dressing using mostly ingredients from the cabinet most people keep on hand or can find easily. The water makes it stretch a little further for those on a tight budget, but you might also like it without.
