What to put on your salads???
Look for dressings with less than 3 grams of sugar per 2-tablespoon serving. You'll find
this information listed on the Nutrition Facts Panel under the heading "Total
Carbohydrate." When it comes to fat, look for commercial dressings made with
heart-healthy monounsaturated fats like extra-virgin olive oil and canola oil. Other
vegetable oils are OK, but they don't carry the same health benefits. Be careful of
dressings touted as "low-fat" or "nonfat," since manufacturers often add extra sugar to
improve the flavor. It's also important to avoid dressings made with trans fats, since
these fats probably pose a greater risk for heart disease than saturated fats. You can
identify trans fats on the Nutrition Facts Panel under the heading "Total Fat."
Fortunately, there are many commercial dressings on the market that meet these
guidelines, but if you're unsure of the dressings you're served in a restaurant or at
someone's home, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and vinegar is always a safe
substitute. Using just lemon and a little dill is great!

3/4 cup distilled water
2 Tablespoon arrow root powder

1/4 teaspoon marjoram
2 teaspoon bell pepper

Combine distilled water and arrow root powder in a blender and process to combine.

into blender with other ingredients and process until parsley is chopped fine. Pour into a
jar and refrigerate. The dressing will thicken more as it cools.
