Ellie and Josie adore Panera Bread's vinaigrette dressing. I found it at Sam's Club when we had a membership and bought a few bottles (can anyone say "ridiculous shelf life"!?) Well, we finally ran out and I was determined to figure out how to make it myself. After a few tries with our basic vinaigrette recipe, reading the bottle and numerous adjustments and taste tests…I think we've got it! Close enough for us at least!

I hope this makes your recipe file. When the girls were here a week ago, I made salad for dinner , Josie asked for Panama dressing. I didn't have it so she made do with ranch., now I'll be able to make this.
