Homemade Caesar Dressing

This homemade Caesar dressing is easy to make and better tasting than anything I have found in a store. It has kept in the fridge for up to 2 weeks in a sealed container, but I normally finish it off way before then. In a matter of minutes you will have freshly made dressing with a great flavor and only one thing to wash—definitely a crowd pleaser at my house.
