Salad Dressing-Thank You Amanda

I am an excited new member of your neighborhood garden and I wanted to share a salad dressing recipe that is delicious with the pomegranate and perhaps even the lettuce. I like adding walnuts, feta cheese, etc.

1 cup of sugar
1 cup of ketchup
1 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup oil

Put sugar, ketchup and vinegar in mason jar and mix...then slowly add the oil. It is simple and very tasty!
