Jane's Zesty Lemon Herb Vinaigrette

This dressing has a bold--and in my and my 12 year-old son's opinions--amazing flavor. We both looked at each other in awe when we tasted this concoction.  I served it over mediterranean salads for the next three days for dinners, lunches and even breakfast.  It brings any salad to a very lively life.
