DIY "Salad Dressing"

aka "Miracle Whip"
Always on the hunt for better quality food to offset processed, here is a great do it yourself copy-cat recipe for my favorite - Miracle Whip salad dressing. My version has a bit of an olive taste, since I used EVOO, but you can use canola or veggie oil for a more authentic taste without the high fructose corn syrup and excess perservatives. (This is a doubled recipe...cut in half for about a cup of dressing.)

DIY "Salad Dressing"

2 egg yokes
10 tsp apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar, if you prefer)
1/2 tsp + 1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp lemon juice (squeezed or bottled)
1/2 tsp dried mustard
1/4 tsp all-purpose salt-free seasoning (such as Spike)
8 tsp granulated sugar
1/4 tsp paprika

Put all ingredients except oil in blender or Vitamix - mix on low speed until thoroughly mixed. While blender is still on low speed, drizzle in oil. The mix will get quite thick...exactly what you want!

Place in lidded mason jar and store in fridge for 7 - 10 weeks.
