Coral Dressing

Celeste Keller Lumpkin Kay

This was my mother’s salad dressing. It’s easy, got a great kick and it’s a delicious alternative to preservative-laden store-bought dressings. I really don’t know where she got the recipe, but I have always thought it might be from The Schooner Restaurant in Nederland, Texas — who knows, she may have known someone who worked there! —Jane Lumpkin Clotiaux (Dec 1996)

1 can condensed tomato soup
1 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp white vinegar
6 - 7 drops Tabasco sauce
1 small clove garlic, crushed

Mix soup and mayo together until smooth. Blend in remaining ingredients. Chill.

Note: If you use fat-free mayonnaise, you'll have a great fat-free salad dressing!
