Balsamic Italian Dressing and Italian Seasoning Blend

Make up this seasoning blend in bulk and keep it handy. It will quickly replace your packets of Italian dressing seasoning mix you buy from the store. It is so economical to make and the best part is that you know exactly what is going into it. No preservatives or ingredients you can not pronounce. But that is not the best part. The best part is this is one incredibly good Italian salad dressing recipe.

When I was on the Low Iodine diet, this was the salad dressing I lived by. I grew so fond of it that I continued to make it long after I needed to. There is nothing better than fresh salad dressing and it is so easy to whip it up real quick. I absolutely love the taste of the fresh Extra Virgin Olive Oil in this recipe.
