Light Italian Salad Dressing for Olive Garden

Our passion for Italy has led us to establish two significant initiatives: the Olive Garden Culinary Institute of Tuscany, located on the grounds of the Rocca delle Macìe winery, and the Italian Chef Council, a group of chefs based in Italy who collaborate with the Olive Garden executive chefs. To further demonstrate our commitment to Italy, we send a select group of employees to the Culinary Institute each year, where they immerse themselves in the culture, gain inspiration, and learn the fundamentals of Italian cooking. To date, more than 1,200 Olive Garden team members have traveled to Tuscany to participate in this enriching experience.

The famous salad dressing that you have come to enjoy at Olive Garden is now available for you to enjoy at home. This dressing adds a delightful light and creamy touch to any salad, and it also makes a delicious vegetable dip. Compared to regular Italian dressing, this version boasts 20% less fat and 60% fewer calories, making it a healthier option without compromising on flavor.

To create your own never-ending salad bowl, simply mix the Olive Garden salad dressing with a combination of iceberg and romaine lettuce, grated carrot, chopped red cabbage, and sliced or slivered radishes. The result is a flavorful and nutritious salad that you can enjoy time and time again, all while indulging in the authentic taste of Italy right at home.

The Olive Garden Culinary Institute of Tuscany, located on the grounds of the Rocca delle Macìe winery, serves as a hub for immersing our employees in the rich culinary traditions of Italy. Each year, we carefully select a group of individuals to travel to this renowned institute, where they become fully immersed in the culture, gain inspiration, and master the fundamentals of Italian cooking. This experience not only enhances their knowledge and skills but also fosters a deeper appreciation for the authentic flavors and techniques that characterize Italian cuisine.

Complementing the Culinary Institute is the Italian Chef Council, a group of chefs based in Italy who collaborate with the Olive Garden executive chefs. This partnership allows us to continuously refine and evolve our menu, ensuring that the dishes served at Olive Garden reflect the true essence of Italian culinary excellence. The insights and expertise shared by the Italian Chef Council play a crucial role in shaping the flavors and presentations that our guests have come to love.
