Related: About this forumDoes anyone have a good recipe sub for 7 Seas Creamy Italian dressing?
Here's the thing. I used to make a dish called Chicken Narragansett. The trick was to marinate the chicken, usually breasts, in the creamy dressing. 7 Seas was bought out by Kraft who discont. the product. Like most Kraft dressings, theirs is slop.
So wondering if anyone else has tried to make their own.

(111,222 posts)The dressings are all good and I'd use nothing else for a bottled Italian oil & vinegar.
All the big brands taste like latex paint to me. I'd rather eat a salad plain than use them, although a sprinkle of garlic salt does wonders.

(50,130 posts)I won't buy a dressing that has more than 1 g sugar. Most bottled dressings are 2 or 3 g. I just don't like sweet dressings.

(1 post)If you are lucky enough to live in a city that has a Kroger grocery store. Kroger's store brand creamy Italian dressing is exactly the same as the original Seven Sea's. Creamy Italian has ALWAYS been my favorite / only dressing and it is a exact match. I don't know if Seven Sea's just put Kroger's label on the bottle or if Kroger actually has someone co-pack it for them, but at $2.50 a bottle its a deal. My fear is that Kroger will run out and that will be the end of Creamy Italian. I do not understand why Kraft choose to get rid of Creamy Italian, they make many other horrible dressings that could have been deleted from their product line.
As for copycat recipes I have tried the ones with mayo and its not even close. I will continue to make different dressings until I find one that works. Then I will post it.
