While preparing this week’s meal plan, Celia stumbled upon this DELISH dressing. As most of you probably know, it can be very difficult to find a store-bought salad dressing that is not full of additives, sugar, or soy. What many don’t realize is that yummy homemade dressings are just a few ingredients away and easy to prepare! This one is simple, flavorful, and 100% Dr. Brown approved! We used it as the compliment for an amazing grilled chicken dish, but it would be perfect for your favorite summer salad as well.
Look how even this “natural” brand has some undesirable ingredients in it to make it shelf stable.
Or even worse a highly processed product like this one which is filled with Dr. Brown No-no’s…
