Servings:
1.5 cupsThis is a great, no-fat-added dressing that really spices up your greens! It's a green color, too. :)
I think it's better with prepared mustard, but if you can find a raw one, that's great!!
Ingredients:
3/4 c. water
2-3 dates
optional clove of garlic
optional pinch of
pink salt
1 T. mustard (dijon or stoneground)
6-7 spinach leaves or collard leaf
2 T. basil
1/2 c.
cilantro
1/2 c. parsley
Preparation:
Blend until smooth in a blender or Vita-Mix. Vita-Mix or a high-speed blender works best. Otherwise, you may want to soak the dates.
You can sub or add chives in as well.

2. superfood, i didn't think i'd
superfood, i didn't think i'd be able to find a dressing i'd like better than guacamole, but this one definitely works!!! i'm eating this on a bed of spinach and i'm just in total awe at how delicious it is. i used a mixture of honey dates and medjool and a bunch of chives since i didn't have cilantro.
i want to bring a big batch on vacation with me, but the drive is over 8 hours. do you think it would last if i put it in a jar and had a freezer pack next to it??
3. Beautiful. Thanks

This sounds nice. I'll try it tonite. And fight the urge to add avocado or hemp oil...=)
