Comments
This is a pantry-staple dressing that any Charlotte grocer carries without a second trip—tomato juice, lemon, onion, Worcestershire, mustard, and salt are standard stock everywhere from ALDI to Publix. Five minutes is honest; you're just whisking together six liquid and dry ingredients. At roughly $1.50 to $2.00 per batch, the cost per serving lands well under 50 cents, making it genuinely cheap for four servings. The only soft spot is that it's a vinaigrette-style condiment with no leftover story—you make it fresh for a salad and use it the same night, which is fine but means no meal-prep benefit for a busy week.
