Dressing for Salads to Try

BASIC OIL AND VINEGAR DRESSING:

1/2 c. olive oil
1/3 c. vinegars (mixed) or lemon juice
1/2 c. water
1 T. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper

(My mix was White Wine Vinegar and White Vinegar. )

(After the fast, you can add 2 T. brown sugar for a great “go‐to” dressing).

STRAWBERRY BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE:

This “recipe”, so to speak, isn’t precise with measurements. And I apologize to those who require those parameters. Do your best with these suggestions.

1 pint of strawberries, washed and hulled
Balsamic vinegar (probably about 1TBSP)
Good quality olive oil (maybe about 1/2 cup or so)
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper

As you wash your berries, keep an eye out for the inevitably softer, slightly mushy berries. Set these aside, as their sharper, wine-y taste make them perfect for your vinaigrette.

I puréed my strawberries. You don't want a strong strawberry taste.
