I have not tried this yet, but this salad dressing sounds like it would be delicious. It makes enough dressing for 8 cups of romaine lettuce plus any ingredients you want to add to it:
Lemon Yoghurt Salad Dressing
1 cup plain whole milk yogurt
1/3 cup chopped Italian Parsley
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 clove garlic, pressed
fine sea salt
Another thought that came to my mind is soup if you get tired of having salad. This is my minestrone soup recipe and it's very easy to adjust with whatever you have on hand.
Minestrone Soup
Olive oil
1/4 of a large onion, diced
3 or 4 cloves of garlic. diced
1 stalk celery, thinly sliced
1 large potato, peeled and diced in 1/2 inch cubes
1 carrot, thinly sliced
1 can 15 oz. white beans, undrained
1 can 15 oz. diced tomatoes, undrained
3 cups water
4 teas low sodium beef base
salt and pepper to taste
1 teas dried thyme
1 teas dried basil
1 T dried parsley
1 bay leaf
2 cups baby spinach, sliced in 1/4 inch strips
1/2 cup small sea shell pasta (added at end)
romano or parmesan cheese, freshly grated
Directions
Saute onion, garlic and celery in olive oil until opaque. Add remaining ingredients except sea shells and spinach. Heat through and simmer for approximately 15 minutes. Add spinach and pasta, stir and simmer for an additional 15 minutes. Serve with freshly grated romano or parmesan cheese.
I use "Better Than Bullion" from Costco because it's cheaper and lower in sodium than canned beef broth. You can use any form you want just adjust it for the 3 cups of water. |
