Raw oil free salad dressings.

These are my favourite salad dressings. . .

 

  1. Chipotle Dressing – 1 red capsicum, 1/2 clove garlic (optional), 1 zucchini peeled, 1 tbsp tahini, 1 large celery stalk, 1 small lemon, 1tsp sweet paprika, 1/2 cup sunflower seeds – blended till smooth.

 

  1. Oil Free Pesto – 1 peeled zucchini, 1/2 clove garlic, 1 cup basil, 1

small lemon, 1/2 cup sunflower or pumpkin seeds-blended till

smooth.

 

  1. Zesty and Creamy– 1 whole orange, 1/2 avocado, 1/2 cup fresh

mint- blended till smooth.

 

  1. Asian Style -1 small lime, 2 tbs coconut aminos (or tamari), 1/2

chilli (optional) 1 clove garlic (optional) 1 tbs tahini, 1 inch ginger grated, 1 pitted date,  1/4 cup pineapple juice – pestle & mortar together. Add sesame seeds in once it’s made for decoration.

 

  1. Simple & Easy– juice from 1 small lemon, 2 tbs tahini – whisked together.

 

  1. Creamy Basil Dressing – 1 avocado, juice 1 small lemon, 1/2 cup basil, 8 brazil nuts – blended till smooth.

 

  1. Tropical Bliss – 1 mango cheek, 1/2 red capsicum, 1 cup fresh

mint, 1 cup coriander, 1/2 cup sunflower seeds – blended till smooth.

 

  1. BBQ Sauce – 4 organic soaked & drained semi-dried tomatoes, 2 soaked dates, 1/2 red capsicum, 1 clove garlic, 1/2 cup fresh

coriander, 1/2 cup fresh mint, 1 tsp sweet paprika, 2 fresh

tomatoes, 1 peeled zucchini – blended till chunky or smooth

which ever you like & add some of the date water if you need to

adjust the texture.

 

  1. Ranch Dressing – 1 cup soaked & drained macadamia nuts, 1

clove garlic, 1/2 cup fresh dill, 2 sprigs thyme, 1 tbs apple cider

vinegar, 2 spring onions, 1/2 lemon – blended till very smooth

adding water if needed. Once blended add thinly slice spring

onions and more chopped chives.

 

  1. Pina Colada- ½ cup pineapple juice. ¼ cup fresh mint. ½ cup coconut milk, 2 tbs tahini, 1 inch grated ginger, ½ garlic clove, 1 tbs coconut aminos, squeeze lime- blended till smooth.

 

Of course if you cannot eat garlic or nightshade or spices or nuts substitute these or keep it simple. I do not recommend processed oils or vinegars or salt and pepper – spices are to be kept at a minimum too – oils like olive oil stop the body digesting the food it’s eaten with . . . slowing down the digestion!
