Velvety Vinagrette
Do you like the consistency of creamy dressings but not the calories? I made this dressing using avocado to create the creaminess instead of mayo, sour cream or buttermilk. You can use either lemon juice, lime juice or apple cider vinegar, all of which are alkalizing, which is good for your bones. Let's not forget about avocados. Avocados are a source of vitamins C, E, K, and B6, as well as riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, magnesium, and potassium. They also provide lutein, beta carotene, and omega-3 fatty acids. Avocados contain high levels of healthy, beneficial fats. Serve it on some beautiful Bok Choy and reap the benefits of a low oxalate vegetable with only 1 mg of oxalates per cup.
