Banana poppy seed dressing a lightly sweet, refreshing dressing that lets the flavor of banana come through. A homemaker with four grown children, I have an extensive recipe collection. The dressing is so good over crisp greens or fresh fruit. Give it a try. From "Gloria Kirchman of Eden Prairie Minnesota"
