Dressing
I recently bought the fantastic book Crazy Sexy Diet and LOVE it!
Kris Carr is an inspiration. Her attitude is up- lifting and refreshing. Seven years ago she was diagnosed with a rare, incurable cancer which encouraged her to make a total lifestyle upgrade.
From her book she states, “Since changing what I eat and how I live, my body and mind are healthy, strong, and empowered. I prove my own point every day, and the proof is in the pudding.”
Her courage is admirable and her zest for life is contagious.
I highly recommend reading this book.
Prevention IS the cure, Kris states and I couldn’t agree more.

This dressing is very fresh, rich and creamy! It really tastes amazing. It is packed full of wonderful herbs, both dry and fresh, which give it a beautiful green color. It is rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, healthy fats and protein.
It makes a good amount of dressing so it can be stored in the fridge and used for nutrient-rich salads (like the one to your right), dipping and sandwiches.
Enjoy!

(recipe from Gena Hamshaw)
¾ cup cashews, soaked for at least 2 hours *
½ cup water
2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
¼ - ½ tsp salt
½ tsp dried thyme
½ tsp dried oregano
1 clove garlic
½ tsp onion powder
3 Tbsp fresh dill
3 Tbsp fresh parsley
3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1. Blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender OR blend all ingredients, except oil, in food processor and drizzle the oil in slowly until the mixture is creamy and emulsified. Makes 1 ½ cups or so.
*Note: I used almonds and it worked well….still creamy and delicious. This dressing is great for salads, dipping or pouring over steamed veggies.

I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner.
I believe in kissing, kissing a lot.
I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong.
I believe that happygirls are the prettiest girls.
I believe that tomorrow is another day.
I believe in miracles."

I love her light-hearted look at life!!
