Unusual Salad Dressing

admin February 16, 2016 6 Comments
I’m at a loss for words when it comes to naming this salad dressing. Maybe you all can suggest a good name for it? For now I’m settling on “unusual salad dressing.” Why? Because it is actually unusual tasting; in my book anyway. And oddly, it is kiddo’s VERY FAVORITE salad dressing of all time! Seriously, put on this homemade ranch dressing, or this Russian dressing, or bottled Italian...

Today’s recipe comes courtesy of one of my readers.  She saw my Russian Cranberry Chicken post where I stated making my own Russian Dressing was on my to-do list.  Well, no more.  Thanks to her, she sent me a copy of her Russian Dressing recipe that is soy free and refined sugar free as well as free of all the other stuff I stay clear from.   There is ketchup in the recipe so in order to...

Fun Finds Friday – Blueberry Sauce

Fun Finds Friday is here! Recently I had been shopping and saw a bottle of blueberry sauce.  As usual, I turned over the jar to read the label.  While it had no allergens (shocking!) it was not blueberry sauce.  It was high fructose corn syrup and other chemical sounding names.  It had something like “blueberry flavoring” in it.  Five years ago I probably would have bought it.  Now? ...

Allergy Free Thousand Island Dressing (And Why It Is Named That)

admin May 26, 2013 4 Comments
I like to check out cookbooks from the library occasionally.  I found Cooking Free by Carol Fenster, PhD.  To me, it appears to be one of the “first” allergy friendly cookbooks having been published 8 years ago.  I’m actually surprised that I had not heard of or seen her cookbook before now.  While flipping through the book I came across a recipe for Thousand Island Dressing.  I was...

Vegan Ranch Dressing

Two and a half years.  That is how long I have been milk free.  And that is how long I went without Ranch dressing.  I always intended to come up with a recipe for it.  But somehow I never got around to it.  Then a few weeks ago I got a real hankering for it.    Rather than do it myself, I thought I would look for a recipe on another blog.  Surely, someone had come up with a good Ranch...
