Homemade Italian Salad Dressing

I was looking for a good homemade dressing and decided to give this one a try. I used half apple cider vinegar and half regular vinegar because that sounded good. I don't generally love the oil and vinegar dressings but this was really good. Even my husband, who has been strictly a creamy poppyseed dressing man for some time decided to try it and he really liked it. I also sprinkled some of the dry mix on chicken while it was cooking and it was very tasty.

Italian Dressing

1 Tablespoon sugar
2 Tablespoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 Tablespoon dried parsley flakes
3 Tablespoons salt
dash garlic powder

Combine all dry ingredients.

Mix 2 Tablespoons of dry mix with:
1/4 cup vinegar
2/3 cup olive oil
2 Tablespoons water

Mix well.

Multigrain Bread

This is a good bread recipe I made the other day. It is super easy and smells and tastes really good.

Multigrain Bread

7 cups assorted flour (any combination— Suggestion 3 cups white, 3 cups whole wheat, and 1 cup old-fashioned oatmeal)
2 cups warm water
1 Tablespoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup oil
2 packets yeast
4 egg whites

Mix, knead well, and let rise for one hour. Punch down. Form into breads (makes 2-3 large loaves) or rolls. Let rise for 1/2 hour. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
