Home-Made “Italian” Dressing
What You Need:
¾ cup flax oil (or use olive oil or grapeseed oil)
½ cup organic extra virgin olive oil (or grapeseed oil)
1 cup raw apple cider vinegar
¼ tsp sea salt
½ tsp italian seasoning or 1/4 tsp each of dried oregano, parsley and basil
½ fresh lemon juice (optional)
½ tsp honey or maple syrup (omit if you’re cleansing)
1 garlic clove, crushed (optional)
1. Whisk up ingredients and store in a salad dressing container.
2. Keep refrigerated (up to 5 days).
3. Top onto a green salad and enjoy!
Benefits:
– flax oil: great for your skin, hair and heart. If you dont have it, just add more olive oil or grapeseed oil
– apple cider vinegar: highly alkaline (balances the pH in your body = wards of sickness and colds), very soothing for the skin and digestive track, helps acne, weight loss, ward off colds, sunburns, dandruff
– salt-free italian seasoning: great way to add flavor to a dish without salt or unnecessary ingredients or calories.
This recipe was inspired by my friend Christa Orecchios Healthy Italian Dressing recipe. Love love her recipes!
