Salads are so very nutritious!! Our body needs plenty of raw foods to fulfil its needs in vitamins and minerals. But I hear too many times that salad are boring :-(

I believe that the secret behind a yummy salad is its dressing. Here are some ideas for you to play with and find how you most enjoy your greens :-)

Bon Appetit!


FRENCH MUSTARD DRESSING

  • 5 Tbsp of Olive oil (raw Virgin)
  • 1 tbsp of Wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp of Dijon Mustard
  • 1-2 shallots
  • Celtic Salt
  • Black Pepper

I love this dressing for any kind of green salad or mixed veggies salads...


SOY SAUCE DRESSING

  • 1 Tbsp of Activated Tahini
  • 3 Tbsp of Organic Soy Sauce (or Tamari)
  • 2 Tbsp of Oil (coconut, grape seed, safflower)
  • 1-2 cloves of garlic, depending on size and on how much you like garlic

This thick and garlic-y sauce is awesome on spring rolls, tempeh, tofu or coriander salads!!


LEMON DRESSING

  • 3 Tbsp of Olive oil
  • ½ a lemon juice
  • ¼ Red onion, finely chopped
  • Himalayan Salt
  • Black Pepper

This refreshing dressing is great for Taboules or avocado salads


CREAMY CASHEW-AIOLI

  • 2 cups of Cashews (soaked overnight, rinse and drained)
  • ½ cup of water
  • 3 Tbsp of Olive Oil
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • Big handful of parsley
  • Himalayan Salt
  • Black Pepper

Put all ingredients into high-speed blender and blend until creamy. Put more or less water depending on what consistency you want.

I love to have this as a dip or with roasted veggies or home-made hot chips.


VEGAN JAPANESE MAYONAISE

  • ½ a block of Organic Tofu
  • ¼ to ½ cup of Oil (safflower, grape seed oil)
  • ¼ red onion
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

Put all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth.

Awesome with home-made hot chips when you fell like "healthy junk food" :-)
