Italian Dressing (Half a Packet) is a classic, zesty condiment originating from Italian-American cuisine. Typically made with a blend of vegetable oil, vinegar, lemon juice, and a mix of herbs and spices such as oregano, basil, garlic, and onion powder, this dressing offers bright, tangy flavors that complement salads or marinades. Half a packet provides a lighter serving, making it a convenient portion for controlling calorie intake. While rich in flavor, it is primarily oil-based, contributing fats that are predominantly unsaturated, which can be heart-healthy in moderation. However, it might also contain added sugars and sodium, so it’s important to check the label if monitoring these nutrients is a concern. Italian Dressing is a versatile addition to meals, but individuals aiming for a cleaner ingredient profile might opt for homemade versions to reduce preservatives or additives commonly found in commercial packets.
