Poppy Seed Salad Dressing

Poppy Seed Dressing

¾ cup sugar
1 cup oil
1/3 cup vinegar
1 tsp poppy seeds
1 tsp prepared mustard
1 tsp grated onion
Mix & refrigerate.
We had this dressing on cole slaw on Mother's Day. It was awesome! I personally like the creamy cole slaw better, but I usually end up with the stuff that has the clear dressing. That's super easy to make as well, which explains that one. This dressing is not as "heavy", I suppose you could say, as the creamy dressing, but not as tart as the clear stuff. This recipe wasn't originally intended for cabbage, but it worked out great. I think it would be good on a pasta salad, but haven't tried that yet - so if you do, let me know how that turns out.

  1. I love this dressing! Just love it! Not a real big fan of the mayo, and always trying to get a hold of dressings with vinegar.
    This is cool, because I was really craving veggies this morning ... hmmmm.

  2. Sounds very refreshing--will definitely give it a try. The creamy dressing is yummy, but you're really tasting that rather than the slaw, aren't you?
