Detox Basil Dressing
A good dressing can make a dull salad into something AWESOME!
Ingredients
- 60 g fresh basil
- 125 ml olive oil or oil of choice*
- 60 ml MCT oil or other neutral oil**
- salt
- 1 Garlic clove
- tsp Raw honey
- 2 tbsp Raw Apple Cider Vinegar RACV
- 50 g Pumpkin seeds
- 125 ml Water
- Organic egg yolk
Instructions
- 1. Simply place ingredients in a high powered blender (except water) and blend until smooth adding the water until at your desired consistency. (I like mine runny but you can easily make this thicker by halfing the amount of water added)
- 2. Add more water or oil to get desired thickness.
- 3. This will thicken afer being in fridge so shake or add additional oil when you wish to serve.
- 4. Use 1-2 tbsp to cover a salad.
- 5. Store in fridge for 4-5 days in sealed container.
Notes
* olive oil can have quite a strong flavour (often it is the slightly bitter flavour of the vit E) so ideally go for cold pressed organic avocado oil or even rapeseed oil if you don't like the flavour of olive oil.
**MCT oil is a oil with zero flavour but great for revving up your metabolism. A cheaper alternative would be organic cold pressed rapeseed or avocado oil.
