I cannot do Catalina dressing. A well intentioned friend of my mother’s brought a casserole for us when my parents were out of town and left my teenaged brother and I home alone.
It was chicken thighs, big slices of onion, and smothered in what had to be 2 bottles of Catalina dressing.
It took forever to bake and it was so awful. The onions made the whole thing taste sweaty and the chicken skins had a terrible boiled texture.

I never heard of these. I want good recipes.

Now I miss French dressing.

Interesting, but beware, this is a very trashy website. Consider also Green Goddess, herbal with garlic; Russian: ketchup, mayonnaise, and sweet relish.

Mayonnaise, milk, and sugar on fresh grown lettuce. Taste of my childhood.

I make hot bacon dressing all the time. I just chop up some bacon, fry it, remove the bacon and add sugar to the bacon fat, cook for a minute, add vinegar and reduce until it’s thick enough for you. (sorry not a recipe lol I just eyeball the amounts). It’s really good on spinach (even the kids love it)

There are no actual recipes on that page?

This one is similar to French but a little more complex (I think personally). I do emulsify it so it’s more similar in texture.

Catalina/French is still one of my favorite dressings
Green Goddess, Sorry I left that recipe in my other computer.
Edit; This one will do. [https://inagartencooks.com/ina-garten-green-goddess-dressing/](https://inagartencooks.com/ina-garten-green-goddess-dressing/)

Well that website is unusable
My grandparents always put oil and lemon or oil and vinegar with salt and pepper on their salads.
It’s so simple and refreshing.
