This dressing is good on any green salad for something different. I especially like it with Strawberry Chicken Salad, a meal salad with greens, strawberries, and chicken.

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup sliced strawberries
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar (balsamic is even better, but carb counts vary, so be careful)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sweetener to taste (depends on sweetness of strawberries; you might not need it)

Preparation:

Puree strawberries in a blender or food processor. Add vinegar, mustard, and seasonings. Blend, then add olive oil. Blend until creamy. Taste and adjust seasonings.

Makes 8 servings of about 2 tablespoons each.

Nutritional Information: Each serving has half a gram effective carbohydrate and 123 calories.
