Ingredients

• ¾ cup olive oil
• 2 Tablespoons red (or white) wine vinegar
• 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove, crushed or ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
• 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Add the olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, peppers, and Parmesan cheese to a jar with a tight fitting lid. Shake well to combine and serve. Ingredients will settle to the bottom of the dressing, be sure to shake thoroughly right before using.

Notes

Use fresh oregano and garlic if all of Italian Dressing will be used immediately. 
Use dried oregano flakes and garlic powder if Italian Dressing will be used over a period of time. Made in this way, the Italian Dressing will keep up to 1 week in the refrigerator and longer if the cheese is omitted.
