As most of you already know, I am eating a gluten-free and sugar-free diet. (refined sugar, that is) I am loving the way I feel. I have more energy. I have less stomach trouble. I am losing weight. And my body is changing for the better, reshaping, if you will. It has been a good change for me.
It has been a challenge finding good recipes that I like, though, I will admit. Recipes that don’t call for exotic ingredients that cost an arm and a leg, that is. Eating healthy is a bit more costly than I thought it would be, but it is well worth it!!
This is a really good recipe that I actually ha.d all the ingredients for at home already. I was pleasantly surprised when I realized I didn’t have to buy anything special to make this recipe! And this recipe fits right in with my LDL lifestyle perfectly!!
Strawberry Salad Dressing
1/4 c. cider vinegar
1 T. minced onion
3/4 t. paprika
3/4 t. Worcestershire sauce
3/4 c. splenda
1 c. fresh strawberries, cut up
1 1/4 c. canola oil (can use light tasting olive oil)
In a blender combine all ingredients except oil. Once blended well, add oil slowly, a little at a time, blending well after each addition til all oil is added. Blend well. Will keep in refrigerator for about a month, but this is so good, I doubt it will last that long!
Good for you!! I have not gone that extreme with my new eating. But, if I did, I think it would be a good thing. Maybe I will. I am so glad you are seeing changes in your weight and shape. That always encourages me to continue on that healthier path. You RAWK! You are inspiring others!
