RE: How To Make a Salad (That Doesn't Suck!) + Vegan Dressing Recipe

in #vegan7 years ago

See, I actually love salad but I don't care for most of what typically goes into them. I just like iceberg, and romain lettuces, baby spinache, carrots, and cucumbers. My main problem is that I like to smother it in ranch or italian dressings.

I'll give your dressing a go, it sounds pretty good. I just can't do the kale and beets and shallots. I still get a good variety of veggies, though. I have a really good blender that I make smoothies with. I usually use some mixture of kale, sweet potato, beets, parsley, red cabbage, swiss chard(the red kind), broccoli, and fresh ginger root. Those are my usual victims. I also put a little kiwi, strawberry, bananna, or blueberries in to make it more palatable, along with some vanilla flavored whey protein powder, walnuts or pecans, and almond milk. It's really not too bad. I just can't bring myself to eat most raw vegetables. This is really the best that I can do.

I've been told that it's not as healthy to drink your vegetables because when you chew them it improves their bioavailabilty or something because of the enzymes in your saliva. Something like that. Don't know how true that is.

What I'd really like is to find is a recipe for non-dairy ranch that actually tastes good. I've tried a few and they always taste weirdly watery or oily. But yeah, that avacado dressing sounds like it might be a good replacement.

Thanks for the dressing recipe, I really needed something like this.
