RANCH SEASONING MIX & DRESSING
This DIY ranch seasoning mix from Wholesome Yum is much healthier than the traditional ranch dressing packets, which contain maltodextrin (sugar), MSG, and other artificial ingredients. You can use this mix to make dressing (below), sprinkle over veggies or to sprinkle over other dishes as a flavor enhancer. You can purchase heavy cream powder on Amazon. Anthony’s Heavy Cream Powder seems to be the purest available, as so many others (even organic) have milk solids and other ingredients in them. Always read the labels ingredients on everything!
RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE
Salad dressing is one of those items that can be troublesome when trying to eat a healthy, anti-inflammatory lifestyle… but it doesn’t have to be. Vinaigrette’s are so easy and add a lot of variety. With frozen berries year-round, you don’t have to just limit yourself to fresh summer berries with this sweet and savory recipe. While a vinaigrette made with frozen, thawed berries is best in a blender, you can also just mash fresh berries for a chunkier texture. Raspberry flavor is great in a salad, but think outside the box and serve it over roasted or grilled vegetables (asparagus, green beans, butternut squash, etc.), grilled salmon or chicken. Brighten up a bowl of fresh-diced summer vegetables, as well.
BLUEBERRY BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE
This vinaigrette is a quick and simple recipe that adds a very flavorful twist to any salad. The flavor seems to intensify after it sits a few hours. You could even use this dressing as a sauce on salmon or chicken to elevate an everyday dish.
CAESER DRESSING
If you’re looking for an authentic Caesar dressing, this is your recipe. Inspired by Wholesome Yum, it is full of flavor and will easily become a family favorite. Don’t be intimidated by the anchovy paste if you’ve never used it. It is the foundation of any good Caesar dressing, and you won’t even know anchovies are there. The best I’ve found is Crown Prince at Kroger or on Amazon. Reese anchovy paste at Walmart is also fine. Keep in mind, not all brand stores carry the same products. Worcestershire gives the best flavor, but coconut aminos work great, too. This recipe makes a fair amount, so you can cut the recipe in half.
HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING
This popular dressing/sauce is frequently requested by our clients. It just goes so well with so many things… salads, sausages, burgers, chicken, etc.
HOMEMADE KETCHUP
Ketchup is a great way to give any dish some flavor or just adding it to Uncured Beef Hotdogs. Here is an easy recipe to make without all the sugar.
