Copycat Outback Steakhouse Tangy Tomato Salad Dressing

I almost passed on making this copycat Outback Steakhouse tangy tomato salad dressing. I’ve made lots of copycats of the dressings from Outback, like their ranch dressing, and I love them. The thought of tomato paste in a dressing made me scratch my head. Made me worry. A bit. Well, all that was for naught because it came out great. More like a French dressing. Or even a tomato soup sorta, but in a dressing format. Still sound odd? It’s not!

Salad Up!

I think this is one of those ‘perfect for a simple salad’ dressings. You know, nothing fancy is required here. Some lettuce. A few other things. No need to spend 30 minutes putting it together. This copycat Outback Steakhouse tangy tomato salad dressing will make it feel fancy. It’ll take that simple salad and make it ‘wow’ with great tomatoey flavor.

Mayonnaise Thousand Island Salad Dressing

My wife is the olive addict in our house. Me, I like them. I like them enough to put them ON my salads. But I’d never put them IN my salad dressing before. That’s why this mayonnaise Thousand Island salad dressing caught my eye. First, I figured she’d love it. And second, it’d satisfy my curiosity about how it would taste. Well, we both ended up happy because this dressing is really very good. It’s different. It’s a great twist on traditional Thousand Island flavors. A brilliant twist.

Mayonnaise Thousand Island Salad Dressing

You’ve Got That Briny Feeling

The salty brininess of the olives adds a lot of flavor to this mayonnaise Thousand Island salad dressing. It’s creamy, smooth and tasty. There’s a lot going on in it. It’s not just one note. Fortunately, it makes a pretty big batch of dressing.

It’s also great for dipping vegetables!

Grating an onion can be kind of a pain. I usually use a Microplane but lately I’ve found myself using my cheese shredder more and more instead. It comes with a grater wheel that grates onions in a second. And of course, I always use it for my cheeses because nothing beats freshly-shredded cheese.

Lexington Coleslaw

Someone asked me the other day if I’d ever had ketchup in a coleslaw. I gave them the same look you’re making right now. No way. Nope. Never. That’s nuts. Then along came this Lexington coleslaw. It contains ketchup. Yep. And you know what? It’s crazy good! What a tangy, delicious twist it brings to a slaw. This is totally different and totally great!

Lexington Coleslaw

Welcome To Different

Ketchup actually adds a lot to this slaw. I won’t say that this Lexington coleslaw is quite your ‘standard’ slaw without it. It’s decent enough. But the ketchup, that tomato flavor, is perfect. The chili powder is different, too. With a nice vinegar hit, it’s not a creamy slaw. It’s more in-your-face. And it has a little kick too that kinda sneaks up on you. This is a great slaw. It’s wonderful as a side, but really great heaped on top of grilled hot dogs or a pulled pork sandwich!

Spicy Firecracker Coleslaw

I am a huge fish-and-chips fan. So when we recently ate at the Aquarium Restaurant in the Opry Mills shopping center in Nashville, Tennessee, that’s what I ordered. And of course I had it with slaw on the side. But not any ordinary slaw. This one had some kick. A spicy kick. And the dressing was different. Deeper. Tastier. After a few tastes it occurred to me that it was a balsamic vinaigrette. “Perfect!” I thought. And as soon as we got home, I made an almost-copycat just-as-great spicy firecracker slaw! Same great kick, same great vinaigrette!

Spicy Firecracker Coleslaw

A Slaw With A Spicy Kick

My version of spicy firecracker slaw is very close to the one we had at the Aquarium Restaurant. I think theirs was made with a white balsamic vinegar, which I didn’t have. I had to substitute dark, which of course made my slaw darker. I also added a spicy mustard, which I’m not sure the original contained. I think so, so I added it. Either way, theirs is great. And mine is great. So no one is wrong!

Homestyle Garlic Ranch Salad Dressing

When I first read over the recipe for homestyle garlic ranch salad dressing I thought it all sounded good. Except one thing. Onion? In my ranch dressing? I was hesitant. Was it a typo? Well, I hoped for the best and made it as it was written anyways. And boy, am I ever glad I did. This is easily one of the best dressings I’ve ever had, nevertheless had.

Homestyle Garlic Ranch Salad Dressing

Ranch. Ish.

On the surface this homestyle garlic ranch salad dressing seems like a normal ranch dressing. It has the same consistency. Smells like ranch (yes I smell my dressings). Looks like ranch. But the onion adds a flavor that really makes it different and amazing.

No Rushing.

When I first made this and tasted it I found the onion to be crunchy and almost overpowering. I hoped for the best, putting in the fridge overnight to get happy. And it got happy. And I got happy. The onion softens and flavors the dressing perfectly.

I try to exercise control when I serve dressings for my salads. I use these little dipping cups to help stop me from just pouring it on. Well you can tell from my picture that it would’ve been impossible to put any more in my cup. I wanted more, that’s for sure.

Easy Mexican Coleslaw

I’m going to tell the truth. It wasn’t my idea to make this easy Mexican coleslaw. My wife came across this recipe and added it to our ‘to-do list’. I was pessimistic about it. What? Beans in a coleslaw? Lime juice? Taco seasoning? “What the heck is this?”, I thought. Well, she went and made it. And I had it. And I loved it! I should’ve known better than to doubt her!

Easy Mexican Coleslaw

Different And Delicious

I ended up loving this easy Mexican coleslaw. A lot. So many different flavors and textures. There’s absolutely nothing boring about this slaw. This is slaw reimagined. At a new level. So, I’m sorry. I was wrong thinking this wouldn’t be a fantastic dish because it was. It feels and tastes so fresh. With a spicy, southwestern twist unlike any other slaw I’ve had or made. This is a great side dish. And it’s great on tacos (especially shrimp and beef!) too!

Lots of… Stuff

Oh I know the ingredient list for this coleslaw is a bit long. But it is still ‘easy’. In fact it’s crazy easy. Considering the reward, it’s more than worth it too. There’s all sorts of like… healthy things in it too. If you’re looking to really shake up your next picnic or family get-together or just a simple grill-out, make this slaw. You’ll be more than happy that you did.

  • 14 ounces coleslaw mix with carrots
  • 1 medium red bell pepper diced
  • 1 ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 15.25 ounce black beans rinsed, drained
  • 1 ½ cups corn kernels grilled or roasted, you can use canned instead
  • 1 jalapeno seeded and minced
  • ½ cup cilantro chopped
  • kosher salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice and taco seasoning in a small bowl.
  • In a large bowl, stir the coleslaw mix, bell pepper, tomatoes, beans, corn, jalapeno and cilantro.
  • Add the coleslaw, bell pepper, tomatoes, beans, corn, jalapeno and cilantro to a large bowl.
  • Add the mayonnaise mixture to the slaw and stir until well combined.
  • Add salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Notes

I used two ears of fresh corn. I husked them and placed them on a hot grill, turning often, until they were roasted. I let them cool then cut off the kernels. If you wish to use canned (drained well) or frozen (thawed) corn kernels. If you like your corn roasted, spread them out onto a baking sheet and place under the oven broiler. Keep an eye on them and remove as soon as they start to show a little char.
Stir the slaw before serving.

Easy Asian Coleslaw

I wanted a good, lighter side dish for my Asian-inspired dinner. Something easy but still delicious. Something that can sit proudly alongside my orange chicken without playing second fiddle. This easy Asian coleslaw was a real winner. Crunchy. Just the right amount of sesame oil. And tons of good fresh stuff.

Come On, Get Happy

You can serve this easy Asian coleslaw as soon as you add the dressing to it and give it a toss. It’s great right then and there. But it’s also great after sitting in the fridge overnight. I rather prefer it that way as the cabbage and onion soak up that delicious dressing.

Dill Ranch Salad Dressing

We recently spent a few days at the Dollywood DreamMore Resort and Spa. We had such a wonderful time there. From driving up, to the room, to the staff, everything was great. One of the biggest highlights was the buffet. Normally when you think buffet you think low quality food, mostly out of cans or boxes. That’s definitely not the case at the DreamMore. Everything was made from scratch and everything was out-of-this-world delicious. It was the buffet from heaven.

One of the things I loved the most at the DreamMore, interestingly enough, was the house-made dill Ranch salad dressing. It was delicious. I could’ve just drank it out of the bottle. I knew instantly that I had to make some when I got home. Now, this version is mighty good, too, but I’m pretty sure that the DreamMore version used fresh herbs (they had a nice herb garden right outside of the restaurant). Even still, this is delicious and a perfect alternative to ‘normal’ Ranch.

Dill Ranch Salad Dressing

The Resting Time Is Not Optional

Do not be tempted to rush the 1 hour rest time that this dill Ranch salad dressing needs. Those dry herbs need time to make the dressing happy. I really love dill so I added a bit more than the recipe calls for. More dill, more better I think.

Delta Coleslaw

This Delta coleslaw is definitely one of my top 10 favorites. It’s got that classic vinegar sauce but with a slight sweetness. And it has plenty of one of my favorite slaw ingredients: celery seed. Lots of fresh crunchy vegetables make this the perfect side dish, but it’s also fantastic on a pulled pork sandwich. I also enjoy it over grilled hot dogs and even Sloppy Joe sandwiches.

Delta Coleslaw

Dressed For Success

I recommend only dressing enough of this Delta coleslaw that you plan on serving. You want to keep that crunchiness as long as possible. If you’re making this today, to eat tomorrow, don’t add the dressing until tomorrow morning at the earliest. You can store the unused coleslaw and dressing separately, in the fridge, until it’s go-time. I found this technique also works great for keeping any slaw good and fresh throughout the week, perfect for my lunches!

Creamy Dill Broccoli Coleslaw

I can’t say I have thought much about using broccoli in a slaw. What, no cabbage? But you know, this creamy dill broccoli coleslaw opened my eyes (and taste buds!) to a totally new way of making slaw. Loaded with dill and with a slight hint of lime, this slaw screams ‘summer’, though you can make it any time of the year.

Creamy Dill Broccoli Coleslaw

Crunchy. And Then Some.

You can substitute ‘normal’ shredded cabbage for the broccoli if you wish. Broccoli slaw tends to stay crunchier longer than cabbage. Cabbage (in a dressing) likes to get soggy in time. If you do decide to make this creamy dill broccoli coleslaw with cabbage instead, sauce only the amount of slaw you plan on serving. That way the leftovers won’t get drenched in sauce and become soggy.
