Last night I was so incredibly envious of my husband's delicious salad topped with pistachios and creamy ranch dressing that I decided to take matters into my own hands and make my own!So, here is what I had for lunch today:
Salad: Locinato kale with shaved carrots, raddicio, and tomatoes topped with raw pistachios and yum- my new Raw Ranch Dressing, which I plan to use later for dips, more salads and maybe even on top of steamed vegetables. I probably made it a bit thick and, if I use it again for dressing, will probably add more coconut water but this consistency is great for dips and sauces.
Raw Ranch Dressing1 cup macadamian nuts (preferably pre-spoaked, rinsed and drained)
1/2 lemon
1/2-1 clove garlic
Dash of sea salt
Coconut water (approx 1/4-1/8 cup but add slowly to desired consistency)
Mix in a food processor until smooth.
Last minute addition: Chocolatree Italian "Pizza Bread" Crackers!!! Chocolatree Cafe's products, particularly their Chocolate Chip Cookies and their Chocolate Love Cups (ie. a grownup, healthy Reeses Cup), are truly and deeply my newest addiction!
