CAESAR SALAD DRESSING
I love a good homemade Caesar salad dressing, but I loathe mayonnaise so needless to say I am quite picky with my Caesar salad dressing. That is why I make it myself. This happens to be packed full of garlic, lemon and sardines...a combination to keep the vampires at bay as well as increase your healthy fats from sardines (which also contain some calcium from their bones to help reach your daily amount) and up the lung protection from the lovely power of garlic.
INGREDIENTS
-
1-2 Lemons (about 2-3 tablespoons, I like mine tart)
-
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan Cheese
-
2 tsp minced Garlic (4 cloves)
-
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
-
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
-
1/2 can of Sardines (oil based)
-
1/2 oil from Sardines (about 1 tablespoon give or take)
-
Dash or two of Black Pepper
-
1-2 tablespoons of Water
-
1 tsp Red Chili Flakes (optional)
PREPARATION
-
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce.
-
Add in parmesan cheese, garlic cloves, sardines and oil, dash or two of pepper.
-
If it needs to be thinned, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time.
-
Refrigerated until chilled and can keep covered for up to 5 days, but it may need additional water to keep thinned. If you want a kick to it, add 1 tsp red chili flakes.
-
Add a fresh squeeze of lemon if desired.
-
You can top with some protein such as seasoned scallops, baked chicken or desired protein!
-
Enjoy!
