Delightfully tasty, low calorie Italian dressing. We had a ton of grape tomatoes, and yes, I cut them in half and grated them. (A dedicated foodie We made a salad of Romaine, Grape Tomatoes, shaved Carrot, Celery and Avocado. We would have added Cucumber and mixed Bell Pepper if we had them in the fridge. We drizzled the salad with this delicious Italian Dressing, topped with shredded Parmesan and a grind of fresh cracked Pepper. I will add Croutons next time, YUM!

This was a good start. I felt it was really lacking in flavor and I did add a good dose of garlic. With the changes, it was pretty darn good.

This is pretty good and a great low calorie option to bottled dressing. I usually have to at least double the spices to add flavor but i'd rather do that and save calories.
