Provided by Chef53Kathy

Categories     Salad Dressings

Time 15m

Yield 1 quart, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups feta cheese, mashed
2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients together in either a blender or food processor. This make one quart of dressing.
  • I prefer to use fresh basil and oregano, *remember it is necessary to double the amount when using fresh herbs.
  • The number of servings is merely an estimate, it depends on how much dressing you like on your salad.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 144.3, Fat 12.4, SaturatedFat 3.6, Cholesterol 19.5, Sodium 342.9, Carbohydrate 6.5, Sugar 2.2, Protein 2.4

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better your dressing will taste. This is especially true for the feta cheese. If you can, use feta cheese that has been made within the last month.
  • Don't over-blend the dressing. If you blend the dressing too much, it will become thick and gloppy. Blend it just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Taste the dressing before you serve it. Make sure that the dressing is seasoned to your liking. You may need to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
  • Serve the dressing immediately. Feta cheese dressing is best when it is fresh. It will start to lose its flavor after a few hours.

Conclusion:

Feta cheese dressing is a delicious and versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads and dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dressing that will impress your friends and family.
