Dear friend,
Let's face it. We all know that eating large salads is not only healthy but in fact necessary for health.

A recent study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association showed that eating a salad a day may help you boost your blood levels of vitamins such as C, E, B6 and folic acid. They're certainly some of the healthiest meals you can have!

But sitting down to chew a bunch of lettuce, grated carrots, sprouts and field greens without a salad dressing is NOT very appetizing except for the most hard-core raw-foodist and a select few others who prefer a naked salad.
And yet, we know that commercial salad dressings are:
Full of fat
Full of the "wrong" kind of oil (canola, etc.)
Full of sugar
Full of salt
Full of suspect preservatives and chemicals
In fact, did you know what the fattiest meals are at McDonalds? Their salads! Incredibly enough, the dressing are so fatty that they beat their Big-Macs in terms of fat content!

But are organic dressings any better? Let's take a look at one of the most popular "organic" salad dressing brand, "Annie's Naturals". (No relation to Aunt Annie of Aunt Annie's Kitchen).

One of the main ingredients in their popular dressings is "Canola Oil." The addition of this ingredient generally makes a dressing that's very high in fat. Read the label carefully. Even organic salad dressings contain many unhealthful ingredients.

So what's the solution here?
If you want to eat salads, and if you want your family to eat them, you need to make them taste good and be HEALTHY with a good, home-made salad dressing.
We're talking about salad dressings that are made mostly from real WHOLE FOODS and not refined ingredients such as canola oil or even large quantities of olive oil.
— If you're tired of the Olive Oil/Balsamic Vinegar combo, then you're in for some surprises once you learn to make more Whole-Food Dressings.
— And if the combination of "tomatoes and avocados in the blender" has started to get a little old for you, then you need to expand your recipe database with a new fresh supply of healthy salad dressings,

If you've purchased any of our other recipe books, then you know that we're not of the opinion that more is better. We've purposely kept in this collection our favorite recipes, the ones that you'll inevitably end up making over and over and ...
