This is my aunt’s recipe for homemade blue cheese salad dressing and it’s an all-time family favorite.
It’s easy to make and the ingredients include granulated garlic, ground paprika and ground black pepper.
Mason jars are great to have on hand for making recipes like this because the ingredients go right into the jar and all that’s left to do is shake the jar and serve.
And should there be any leftovers, the jar can be easily stored in the refrigerator.
This dressing tastes so good served on a wedge of iceberg lettuce and topped with crumbled bacon, crumbled blue cheese, and chopped green onions or chives.
Also, this dressing is a scrumptious dip for a vegetable tray.
Let’s check out the ingredients.
