Raspberry Dash Salad Dressing
- 1/2 teaspoon Ideal Protein Raspberry Jelly (Jello)
- 1/2 teaspoon of Mrs. Dash “Garlic and Herb” 1 Tablespoon of your favorite olive oil
Preparation:
Stir together the Ideal Protein Raspberry Flavored Gelatin and the “Garlic and Herb” Seasoning. Drizzle the olive oil over a salad and toss. Now toss and sprinkle in the combined Raspberry Dash dressing and enjoy! Tip: keep a pre-mixed dressing shaker with you to take into restaurants. Variations: create a dipping sauce by mixing in(small amounts of) lemon juice and the olive oil ahead of time. (After a while, the gelatin sets up and settles to the bottom, so stir the mixture up as you dip. It makes little globs, bursting with flavor, which sticks loosely to what you are dipping (celery never tasted so good!)

Guilt Free Italian Dressing/Marinade
- 2 Tablespoons Italian Seasoning
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 1/2 cup White or Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/4 cup Water
Combine all ingredients in a bottle (something you can shake). This can be used on salads or on your meat before cooking. This will yield 6-8 cups of salad or a whole head of lettuce. I put lettuce in a bowl with fresh veggies, pour dressing on, lid the bowl, and shake it. This will coat the lettuce nicely and the rest will go to the bottom of the bowl so you aren’t drowning the salad. Reminds me of Olive Garden salad!
