We enjoy eating lots of green salads and our favourite dressing is our homemade one, which is freshly squeezed lemon juice, olive oil, herbs and salt. Fresh garlic is also a favourite along with the other ingredients I just mentioned.
The basic recipe is:
1/2 fresh lemon juice
few squirts of olive oil
herbs and salt to taste
If I add garlic - 1 clove (or as many as you like)
Put all ingredients right on the salad mix, then serve right away. One thing about dressing the salad this way, it is not alway so appealing the second day. But that is not usually a problem, I make just the amount I know we can eat.
The herbs is a mix in the green jar in the picture and it is from "The Cape Herb & Spice Company" (I buyit from the health food store) and it is their "Sea Salt and Country Herbs". I just grind a bit on. It is really good!
I'm a homeschooling mommy to 5 children. All precious gifts from the Lord. It is my daily prayer for wisdom to raise our children for Him. I am also a keeper at home and love my calling as a wife and mommy. I love the Lord and it is my heart's desire to bring Him glory in all I do or say. He is faithful!
