Copycat Olive Garden Salad and Dressing Recipe

Our Copycat Olive Garden Salad is like the restaurant version, even the Olive Garden salad dressing! Skip eating out - make this recipe yourself! 

Our Copycat Olive Garden Salad is like the restaurant version Copycat Olive Garden Salad and Dressing Recipe
I am such a fan of Olive Garden that I knew I had to create a few of my favorite copycats to enjoy at home.

When you can't make it to the restaurant, you can always make this salad and copycat dressing for yourself.

And, have you had a chance to try my Olive Garden alfredo sauce? It's a scrumptious copycat recipe loaded with cheese, cream, and a special ingredient to really take it over the top.

Copycat Olive Garden Salad Ingredients

Olive Garden Salad is so amazing you may eat the salad and skip the meal. Now you can make your own salad dressing copycat recipe at home.

A crisp salad with a tart, sweet, and cheesy dressing will keep you coming back for more!

This Olive Garden Salad has chopped romaine lettuce, red onion, Roma tomatoes, Pepperoncini peppers, pitted olives, and seasoned garlic croutons (try these homemade croutons).

I prefer the crisp of the romaine hearts over the American salad blend, so I used romaine in the salad.

And, of course, what makes it truly special is the Olive Garden salad dressing on top.

The salad dressing is fabulously tart and sweet with creamy Romano cheese throughout. It is absolutely amazing. You are going to love it!

Tools needed
  • Blender- You can use any blender, but I absolutely love this one! I use it for ice cream, smoothies, soups, my tomato sauce, and naturally this salad dressing.
  • Salad Bowl- 
  • Salad Tongs - These bamboo salad hands are my favorite
  • Cheese grater - any will work but this is my go to

How to make Olive Garden Salad dressing?

Of course, this copycat Olive Garden salad wouldn't be complete without their signature dressing. 
Thankfully, it's very simple to make at home.

You only need a few simple ingredients to make this including mayonnaise, oil, Romano cheese, and a few seasonings.

If you prefer dressing to be yellow in color (like the original) add pinches of turmeric until it reaches the desired shade (thanks to a reader for the tip).

I left it out in the above photo.

Be sure to let the salad dressing sit in the refrigerator for a few hours before you use it.

This extra time lets the flavors meld. You won't believe the difference it makes.

How do I store leftover dressing?

The dressing will make enough for about four bowls of salad. You can store the leftovers in the refrigerator in a tightly sealed Mason jar.

They will last for about a week. That way, you can enjoy another salad again soon. Or, why not use it to marinate your chicken breasts? They taste amazing that way.

Frequently asked questions

What type of olives are in the Olive Garden salad?

The traditional salad at Olive Garden contains whole black olives. Buy them pitted to save time when preparing the salad.

Of course, you can always add in another type of olive if you prefer. But, black olives are traditional.

Our Copycat Olive Garden Salad is like the restaurant version Copycat Olive Garden Salad and Dressing Recipe 

How many calories are in Olive Garden salad dressing?

The traditional Olive Garden salad dressing contains 80 calories per one fluid ounce. But, if you use the reduced-fat version of their dressing, it contains only 30 calories.

Either way, watch how much you add to this copycat Olive Garden salad because the calories can add up quickly.

What type of cheese do you use in Olive Garden salad?

I use Romano cheese when I make this recipe. But, I have heard from some people that they like to use Parmesan as well.

Please do not buy the powdered mixed cheese in the Italian section of your grocery store. Start with fresh Romano and grate it yourself using a handheld cheese grater.

It's an absolute must and really changes the flavor of the salad.

What should I serve with this salad?

My Instant Pot Zuppa Toscana is a delicious soup to serve along with this copycat salad recipe.

Or, why not enjoy it with a few thick slices of my simple Amish white bread recipe. My no-knead roasted garlic skillet bread would be another delicious option.

Enjoy!

Ikea Meatballs (Famous Swedish Meatball Recipe)

Have you had IKEA Meatballs? If you've ever been to IKEA, chances are you've tried the famous IKEA Swedish Meatballs. They are one of the most popular items on the menu at the IKEA Restaurant. And, now that IKEA has released the official Swedish meatball recipe, you can make them at home! 

I've been working on copycat restaurant recipes so that I can enjoy some of my favorites while I'm at home. I really love my Outback Copycat Alice Springs Chicken, my Copycat Cheesecake Factory Bang Bang Shrimp, and my Olive Garden Copycat Alfredo Sauce. And, have you tried my Cracker Barrel Meatloaf Copycat yet?

ve tried the famous IKEA Swedish Meatballs Ikea Meatballs (Famous Swedish Meatball Recipe) 

What is different about Swedish meatballs?

The standard meatballs that you might put in a spaghetti sauce or a meatball sub are usually made with ground beef. But, a Swedish meatball is made from both pork and beef. And, of course it has a creamy gravy rather than a red sauce when you serve it.

ve tried the famous IKEA Swedish Meatballs Ikea Meatballs (Famous Swedish Meatball Recipe)

What are the meatballs made out of at IKEA?

The IKEA Swedish Meatball recipe uses a combination of ground beef and ground pork. Along with that, they add onion, breadcrumbs, garlic, eggs, salt, pepper, and milk. And, of course, it is topped with a traditional Swedish Meatball sauce.

Can you buy IKEA meatballs?

You can buy the IKEA Meatball sauce on Amazon. But, the meatballs will need to be purchased directly from the store. Or, you can use my delicious IKEA Meatballs recipe and make them yourself at home.  Now that you can make IKEA meatballs at home, you can serve this recipe as often as you want to.

How do you make IKEA sauce for meatballs?

The IKEA sauce for meatballs is simply a roux that has added cream and soy sauce. It is served alongside or on top of this Ikea Swedish Meatballs recipe.

Do you cook meatballs before putting them in the sauce?

In this IKEA Swedish Meatballs recipe, you will fry the meatballs. After that, the sauce is served to the side. They suggest serving the meatballs with the sauce over mashed or boiled new potatoes.

ve tried the famous IKEA Swedish Meatballs Ikea Meatballs (Famous Swedish Meatball Recipe)

Why do my meatballs fall apart?

Usually, when your meatballs fall apart, it is because you've used the wrong amount of breadcrumbs. If you add too much or too little, the meatballs will be loose or not have enough binding to make them stick. Double-check you have followed this recipe correctly if your meatballs fall apart while you're cooking them.

What should I serve with IKEA meatballs?

Traditionally, you would serve these over mashed or boiled new potatoes. However, you can serve them over noodles or rice if you prefer as well. IKEA Swedish meatballs are served with lingonberry jam.

But, this may be difficult to find here in the United States. So, a delicious alternative would be to serve it with cranberry sauce. This Simple Cranberry Sauce recipe takes about 10 minutes to make and is absolutely delicious.

ve tried the famous IKEA Swedish Meatballs Ikea Meatballs (Famous Swedish Meatball Recipe)

Equipment needed to make IKEA Swedish Meatballs

  • Meatballer - A meatballer is an easy, mess-free way to make the perfect size Swedish meatballs.
  • Large frying pan - You will need a large frying pan to brown the meatballs in.
  • Lingonberry jam - If you want a traditional taste, you can purchase this jam to go along with your dinner.

Can I freeze these meatballs?

Yes. If you want to make a big batch of these IKEA meatballs and freeze them for another night, you can.

Simply roll out the meatballs and place them on a baking sheet that's been lined with parchment or freezer paper.

Put them in the freezer until they're frozen. Once they're frozen, you can remove them and put them in a freezer bag. This way, they won't stick together when you take them out.

You can keep frozen meatballs in the freezer for 3 to 4 months provided they are stored in a tightly sealed freezer bag. If you want to cook them first, cooked meatballs will stay good in the freezer for up to a year.

Homemade Sloppy Joes

Homemade sloppy joes are the ultimate in comfort food. This recipe gives them a kick of Mexican flavor, making them the best ever! This is the perfect easy meal for busy families.

 This recipe gives them a kick of Mexican flavor Homemade Sloppy Joes 
I don’t think anyone will deny the fact that cooking is more enjoyable when the recipes are quick and easy to make.

Being able to get dinner on the table in under 20 minutes is a win for everyone!

This is exactly why I think you’ll love making this homemade sloppy Joe recipe so much.

What makes these the BEST EVER homemade sloppy joes?

  • Quick to make- This dinner is ready to eat in 15 minutes!
  • Budget-friendly- Of course, prices vary depending on your location, but on average, this meal costs $2.00 per serving. You’ll never see those prices at a restaurant!
  • Easy recipe- No rocket science or special ingredients required. If you know how to brown ground beef on your stovetop, you’re all set.
  • Robust flavor- Standard sloppy joes include seasonings of salt, pepper, and ketchup. We use Mexican spices and green chiles to add some zip, without making it too spicy for kids and sensitive stomachs.
  • Homemade! While it’s technically true that homemade sloppy joes and Manwich are the same things, they do NOT taste the same! Canned sauces like Manwich have a lot of sodium and very little seasoning. I think sloppy joes from scratch always taste better.

Ingredients

You won’t need any expensive ingredients to make this recipe, but the boost in flavor is delicious! Here’s what you’ll need:
  • Lean ground beef- You want to have a little fat for flavor and juicy joes; 85 to 88 percent lean is perfect. Using this percentage of fat is great because usually, you won’t need to drain off the grease.
  • Tomato sauce
  • Diced green chiles- I use a whole 7-ounce can but feel free to use less to suit your family’s tastes.
  • Seasonings- A little kosher salt, black pepper, and a Mexican seasoning blend. I have a recipe for homemade Mexican seasoning blend in the recipe card below.
I make up a large batch of Mexican Seasoning Blend (recipe is from our cookbook, The Simple Kitchen, and use it in all of my quick fix Mexican style recipes. But, you can substitute Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle Seasoning Blend in a pinch!
  • Buns- Now, part of the fun of homemade sloppy joes is their messy nature. But, you want to be able to hold the sandwich, too! I recommend using buns with some structure, like brioche or sesame seed hamburger buns. Also, toasting the buns helps hold the sandwich together better.
  • Butter- For toasting the buns.

Equipment
  • Skillet- One key to cooking any type of ground meat is to use a skillet large enough to hold the meat without crowding it. I recommend using a skillet that is at least 10 inches in size.
  • Spatula or ground meat chopper
  • Baking sheet- I line a baking sheet with parchment paper and use it to lightly toast the inside of the buns.

Storing and freezing instructions

Homemade sloppy joes mixture freezes well, so this is a great make-ahead meal or meal prep idea. Store the meat (or any leftovers of it) in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep well there for 4 to 5 days. To freeze for later use, first, allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Then, portion it into zip-top freezer bags or freezer-safe food storage containers. Sloppy joes will keep well in the freezer for about 3 months.

What sides go with sloppy joes?

There are a lot of options when it comes to side dishes to serve with the sandwiches. You can keep things simple by serving a side of potato chips. Or, turn the meal into a complete Mexican fiesta! Here are a few side dish ideas:

How to accommodate special diets Gluten-free- If you need to keep the meal gluten-free, serve the sandwiches on a bed of tortilla chips. I like to top them with Mexican shredded cheese and cilantro.

Low carb- Serve homemade sloppy joes in a bowl, with thin slices of red onion, fresh jalapeno pepper slices, and cilantro leaves. You could even add some shredded cheese and sour cream on top, too!


Speaking of simple recipes, of course our new cookbook {The Simple Kitchen - available to order now}is packed with delicious, easy recipes.

Best Ever Homemade Sloppy Joes

Homemade sloppy joes are the ultimate in comfort food. This recipe gives them a kick of Mexican flavor, making them the best ever!
prep time: 5 Mcook time: 10 Mtotal time: 15 M

ingredients:

  • 2 pounds lean ground beef, (I use 88% lean)
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons Mexican seasoning blend (I use my homemade recipe below)
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 7 ounce can diced green chiles (I use Macayo’s)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 8 brioche or sesame seed hamburger buns
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend (optional garnish)
  • Handful fresh cilantro (optional garnish)
  • Fritos (optional topping)

instructions:

How to cook Homemade Sloppy Joes

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Split and butter the inside of the brioche buns. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil, buttered sides up. Set aside.
  2. Warm a large (10”) skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and salt. Cook until cooked through, using a spatula to break up the ground beef as it cooks.
  3. You do not need to brown the meat, nor is it necessary to drain the beef drippings unless the beef is drowning in the drippings. Sprinkle Mexican seasoning over the beef. Stir until well combined.
  4. Bake the hamburger buns in preheated oven for 6-10 minutes until they are lightly golden brown.
  5. Add tomato sauce, diced green chiles, and water. Stir to combine and continue cooking until the sauce thickens up, about 5 minutes.
  6. Sprinkle the buns with a tablespoon or so of cheese and place under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until just melted. Don’t walk away from the oven they can go from melted to burned in a blink.
  7. Spoon a heaping portion of Sloppy Joe on the bottom cheesy buns. Top with a small handful of Fritos and cilantro leaves. Place top cheesy bun on top. Serve and enjoy!

Homemade Mexican Seasoning Blend

YIELD:  2 tablespoons

  • 2 teaspoons New Mexico chile powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, to taste
DONNA'S NOTES
  1. I make up a large batch of the Mexican Seasoning Blend from our cookbook The Simple Kitchen and use it in all of my quick fix Mexican style recipes that my daughter loves. But, you can substitute Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle Seasoning Blend in a pinch!
  2. How to freeze Mexican Sloppy Joe. Bring to room temperature and portion into freezer bags or freezer safe containers.
  3. Sloppy Joes in an airtight container keep for 3-4 days.
  4. Serving tips: For a gluten-free option, serve on a bed of tortilla chips topped with Mexican shredded cheese and cilantro. Or serve in a bowl garnished with thin slices of red onion, thin sliced fresh jalapeno peppers and cilantro leaves.

Chipotle Copycat Roasted Chili-Corn Salsa

Chipotle Copycat Roasted Chili-Corn Salsa is a medium heat, smoky and slightly sweet salsa that is an amazing side dish and the perfect topping to so many of my favorite dishes! This simple recipe even has a shortcut to get it on the table in no time flat.
 smoky and slightly sweet salsa that is an amazing side dish and the perfect topping to so Chipotle Copycat Roasted Chili-Corn Salsa





I have professed my love for Chipotle Mexican Grill time and time again. I can't help myself. I absolutely adore their food. My absolute favorite thing to order is a burrito salad. And I could eat it every day. I love my burrito bowl filled with Pork Carnitas, pinto beans, fresh salsa, guacamole and this Roasted Chili-Corn Salsa.

This corn salsa starts with sweet corn, smoky roasted poblano peppers, red onions, jalapeño peppers and cilantro. It is sweet, spicy, smoky and perfectly tart from the citrus juice. It is amazing on chips, on burritos, salads, tacos... Pretty much on everything. I tend to fix a bowl and eat it as a side with lunch and dinner.

This dish has a chile pepper that I have never shared with you before. But trust me. You want this pepper in your life. 

Poblano (pronounced "po-BLAH-no") is a dark green, heart-shaped pepper that is approximately 4 inches long and 2 inches wide.They are a mild variety of chili pepper and are common in Mexican dishes such as chiles rellenos. They are absolutely amazing and a great starter chile for people who are hesitant about cooking with chiles.

If you do not want to spend the time roasting the poblanos, substitute fire roasted green chiles. It makes for an even simpler recipe.

The roasted poblanos really brings this dish together. The smoky poblanos, with the sweet corn and spicy jalapenos come together to create an amazing dish that you will have on your table again and again.

Enjoy!

PRINT RECIPE


Chipotle Copycat Roasted Chili-Corn Salsa
SERVES 12 | ACTIVE TIME 25 MIN | TOTAL TIME 25 MIN











2 poblano chile peppers
4 cups frozen white sweet corn, defrosted and drained
1/2 red onion, finely diced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 medium jalapenos, finely diced
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Place an oven rack at the upper top position and preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Place poblano peppers on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the peppers are totally blistered and browned, about 15 to 20 minutes. Turn peppers every 5 minutes to roast all sides. Transfer the peppers to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap for 5 minutes. Peel the poblanos with your fingers. Careful the peppers are still hot. Cut them in half and remove seeds. Chop poblanos and place in a medium bowl with the remaining ingredients. Toss to combine. Serve and enjoy.

DONNA'S NOTES:  This is a great make-ahead dish, it gets even better the next day.

You can substitute fresh cooked corn when it is in season.

SHORTCUT: You can substitute 1 (4 ounce) can fire roasted diced green chiles for the poblanos. It will save you some time and it tastes amazing!

 is bursting with flavor and fully loaded with chunky tomatoes Best Ever Chicken Tortilla Soup


Living in Arizona for 15 years I have developed a deep love for southwestern flavors.  When it comes to soup I don't think there is a soup more suited to the southwest than Chicken Tortilla Soup.  Classic ingredients of this Mexican inspired soup are some of my favorites.


For starters this recipe includes 3 types of corn.  Kernel corn, hominy and corn tortilla strips on top.  With a base like that you know it has to be good.  Selected smokey spices and fresh chicken and jalapenos help create a fabulous base for the petite tomatoes, black beans and red bell peppers.

homemade guacamole.  After which time I thought what a great idea to top the soup with guacamole.  Well, it is fabulous. Although Chad will take his without the guacamole.

It creates a truly authentic flavor! New Mexico Chili Powder can be found in the international aisle in the bulk bags or on Amazon. if you are afraid the heat will be too much you can use half New Mexico Chili Powder and 1/2 regular chili powder.
