Nonna's Tuscan Salad Dressing

Recipesfull introduces to you: Salad Dressing Recipes. (Nonna's Tuscan Salad Dressing). This very light, fresh dressing works equally well on mixed greens, spinach or romaine, or just drizzled over sliced, fresh, ripe summer tomatoes and fresh basil leaves. Quick and easy to make fresh, but stores well for up to 3 months in the refrigerator. It's a family recipe brought over from the old country by my nonna (grandma.)
