The ever-popular Texas Roadhouse restaurant is known for its housemade Sweet Italian Dressing, but unfortunately, it isn't vegan. However, we managed to get our hands on the recipe (they published it in a local news article, so it wasn't difficult).
This "veganized" version is delicious! Now, we understand what all the fuss is about!
Warning: This dressing will increase your appetite for salad.
Here's what you need:
Add the following to a medium-sized mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup raw or brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
Add the following three ingredients to the bowl above and whisk:
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
Next, add the following two ingredients to the bowl and stir until well combined:
1/3 cup Agave Nectar
1/4 cup yellow mustard
Slowly add 1 1/2 cups of light extra virgin olive oil, whisking until no separation occurs. Pour the mixture into your favorite 2-cup salad dressing bottle, and drizzle over your favorite greens.
Store in a sealed container - or a convenient salad dressing bottle.
Keep refrigerated and enjoy within two weeks. Olive oil will solidify when cold, so bring it to room temperature before serving.
