We love this sweet and sour dressing with tones of onion and celery. I did use olive oil instead of butter. And added 2 tbs minced fresh onion to it. The variations look interesting too, will try them out.

The salt was way too much. I followed the ingredients exactly except I substituted 1 cup of Splenda for 1 cup of sugar. Would that affect the saltiness? It was almost inedible. I'm thinking of making another batch with no salt in order to save it. And another thing, It doesn't make 2 quarts...it makes about 2 cups.

This is a great salad dressing and is a lot like poppy seed without the poppy seeds. I've never had the colonial dressing at Bob Evans so I have no clue if this tastes the same or not. I did cut the recipe down by 4 as two quarts is just way too much salad dressing for us. Thanks for posting this GingerlyJ. Made for New Kids on the Block.
