I've made this per the recipe. I loved it, rest of the family found it too creamy. This makes more dressing that you might expect, and so if you just use a tablespoon on a serving of salad the calories you're getting is not much. (I used panko crumbs instead of croutons on the salad, was yum!) - 7/10/12
