Happy Holidays!

I have been searching high and low for a  clone to Good Seasons French dressing. 
It was a vinaigrette. Not creamy. Its no longer sold. We used to blanch banana 
peppers and then marinate the peppers in this French dressing. 
A pretty healthy snack.

Any help you can give or point in the right direction would be most appreciated!

Best, 

Anna

Hello Anna,

My previous suggestion for a “tastes-like” is here: 7-7-2008

I found the below copycat recipe today: Best Bottled Dressings

Hi!
It's so refreshing to see someone trying to compile Woolworth's recipes. 
Your list is very impressive and I'm not sure you can help me. 
I have been on a quest to find the recipe for Woolworth's tea biscuits for years. 
When I lived in Toronto from 1971 to 1976 I purchased them whenever I could. 
The company I worked for was on Bay Street and if I'm not mistaken Woolworth's 
was on Yonge Street. This company that I worked for had an employees' lunchroom. 
I was introduced to these biscuits by a friend from England. I was born and raised 
in North Carolina so I had never even heard of tea biscuits. 
I immediately fell in love. 
The biscuits had a little sweetness to the dough and were about two inches high. 
There were raisins intermingled in the biscuit. The biscuit itself was not at all crumbly. 
It was dense enough that soft butter could be spread easily. 
If you find this recipe I will be unbelievably happy as I have been in search of these 
biscuits and/or the recipe for many many years.
Thank you so much!

Hi Linda,

I have a partial copy of the F.W. Woolworth’s recipe manual, but this recipe is not in it. I also searched the Internet, but had no success.

I’ll post this for reader input.

Are there any copy cat recipes for anything by Nothing Bundt Cakes? 
I love the lemon cakes but all of the others are great too.

Hello Zaneta,

I found three right off, including the lemon:

Lemon

White Chocolate Raspberry

Chocolate Chocolate Chip

Sorry, I won’t exhaustively search for any and all Nothing Bundt Cake copycat recipes. If you want any other than those three, please request them individually by name.
