HEALTH BENEFITS
Adding healthy fats to vegetables helps the nutrients from the vegetables get absorbed by the body. This recipe contains a health dose of avocado oil, which is very mild in flavor but full of good fats without all the other harmful ingredients found in the top brands of dressings.
DRESSINGS FOR THE WIN!
I love dressings. I love sauces. But more than that I like variety! I know that leafy greens and all sorts of vegetables are extremely healthy for us but does anyone get bored of the same salad and dressing? Me! That’s why I love this recipe. It is something different. It is something delicious. It is something packed full of healthy fats to help my sietity when eating a salad.
This dressing pairs well with our B.L.A.T Salad as it is a mayo based dressing that is very refreshing and takes the salad up a notch to absolute deliciousness.
I especially love salads in the summer when fresh lettuce, tomatoes and cilantro are easily accessible and at their prime time of deliciousness. This dressing is a great combo to our B.L.A.T Salad or if you are looking for a dip for these fresh vegetables this dressing works for that too!
If you eat more of a paleo diet, all you need to do is swap out the Swerve Confectioners for honey or your paleo sweetener of choice.
