     It sounds very tasty, but who uses just 1 tsp for a serving? - 1/25/10

     salad dressing servings are typically 2 TBL at around 80 calories for a light one. The servings for this are 1 tsp. That puts it more realistically at 108 calories a serving. More than others with more flavor - 2/4/10

     A middle eastern staple, this dressing is an old favorite! My family loves it. Try adding a tbsp. each of finely chopped fresh mint and basil for additional flavor. - 1/25/10

     @NADS there are 3tsp in a TBSP therefore a 2 TBSP serving would be 71 cal. - 8/27/11

     I really like the tangy garlic flavor!! It's a keeper...but I don't think I'll get 75 servings out of it. Thanks - 7/5/07

     I made this recipe and LOVE it. It was a bit sour for us - so added some Splenda [hubby a diabetic] and put half the salt in. LOVE that olive oil, garlic and lemon flavour. Our company enjoyed this dressing as well. - 2/4/10

     Very tart on a mixed greens salad ....adding herbs or a sweetener depending on what you are putting it on...would make it less tart.. - 3/21/15
