When making supper and you decide to make a salad only to realize that you are out of salad dressing, we all have been there so you are not alone. Make the most of what you do have and substitute; your family may never notice the difference.
Salad dressing is easy to make and may not be as expensive as regular store bought salad dressing. I usually always make my own and my friends and family all just love its taste. You could make your own salad dressing if you run out or just for a zesty change.
First make your salad by chopping the lettuce, adding the tomatoes and the other favorite vegetables that you and your family love in your salad. Make the salad dressing then add the salad dressing to the lettuce and vegetables before setting it at your table. Making the salad dressing is quite easy and will only call for two ingredients, which includes vinegar and olive oil. Add the desired amount of vinegar to the olive oil for a zesty salad.
For special occasions or just for something different make a different dressing that will have your friends talking and wanting the secret recipe. The truth is there is no secret recipe to give out; the only things that you need to remember are two ingredients. With just two easy ingredients you could be enjoy a great wine vinegar dressing. Simply mix two tablespoons of vinegar with one teaspoon of dry red wine, shake these two ingredients together in a dressing shaker, add to your lettuce salad and vegetables then serve to your family.
Both of these recipes come in handy once your garden favorites come into season.

Another garden salad favorite is a cucumber salad. When making a cucumber salad you will need several cucumbers and an onion. Thinly slice all the cucumbers and the onion then place both in a bowl together. Soak the onion and cucumber mix in salt water for an hour or more. After the mixture has soaked drain the water completely, then add a can of evaporated milk and water (this mixture should cover the cucumbers and onions. After the milk and water is added you will need to add vinegar to make the milk sour (add as much vinegar to make it taste sour). The amount of each will greatly depend on the amount of cucumbers that you add to the salad, in due time you will learn the taste and will be familiar with the measurements.
Cucumber salad is just one of the different kind of salads that you can get out of your garden and could be made more tasty by adding the flavor of vinegar. The dressings you make out of vinegar could be added to the leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, head lettuce, endive and many other kinds of lettuce that come fresh from the garden that you planted and tended too. Adding different homemade dressings are easy and cheap to make and add a succulent taste that regular salad dressings just can’t get.
