Super Summer Salad Dressing

 I CANNOT wait for summer to be here. So many good things to look forward to - including more time to blog! :) 

I made this salad dressing last weekend and have been meaning to post about it. 

Here are the ingredients: 

1/3 C. rice vinegar

2/3 C. extra virgin olive oil

a pinch of pink Himalayan salt

a pinch freshly ground black pepper

1/2 tsp. dry mustard powder

1 t. honey

1 tsp. chia seeds

1 tsp. sesame seeds

juice from 1/2 an orange

                                                      Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a glass jar and shake well. 

The day I made it, I poured it over this salad: 

 

The ingredients for the salad were these (but you can use whatever you'd like). I also added pan-seared shrimp on top, and more sesame and chia seeds (which are uber-good for you). The shrimp was seared in a little butter, salt, pepper, and a little chili powder. 

 

I also used this dressing on top of my veggie wrap today for lunch. The wrap had homemade hummus, organic cucumbers, organic tomatoes, and organic arugula in it. It was too big to wrap, so I ate it like a giant taco (I looked ridiculous but was still delicious). 

I ALSO made some fresh squeezed organic orange juice today! It only took me maybe 10 minutes (squeezed by hand - old school style) and it was a 10 minutes well spent!

My most popular juice recipe

I posted this on Pinterest a few months ago and it's been repinned 50 times! I don't know whether to call it a smoothie or juice since technically I didn't use a juicer, but whatever you call it, it's easy to make and delicious! 

I used my Nutribullet to make it, but I'm sure any other super speed smooshing device will do. 

Note: there's like A LOT of pulp in this since I didn't use a juicer. I like some drinks better that way. I know I'm getting all the nutrients and fiber too. 

Ingredients:

2 organic carrots, scrubbed with a veggie brush or peeled. 

1 peeled orange

1 banana

Directions:

Put everything in the Nutribullet, blend it up real good. Drink. :) 

This makes the two small glasses shown in the picture. 

I hope you like it!
