Vegetarian Caesar Salad Dressing

I don't know about you but I love Caesar Salads.  It's one of the things I really missed when I stopped eating other beings.  I was determined to nail a recipe that was easy and tastes like the original.  This one is pretty good.  I am still fine tuning but give it a try.

I just throw everything in the Vita-Mix and give 'er.

Veggie Caesar Dressing
2 eggs
1/2 cup good olive oil
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 clove of garlic (you can add more if you need - keeps them vampires away!)
1 tsp salt

Give it a go!  Makes enough for two big salads. 

Chop up about 4 cups Romaine lettuce.
Sprinkle some Parmesan on top.
Add croutons
Squeeze a bit of lemon juice.
Add about 1/2 the dressing and Toss!

Water for Life

I keep having to remind myself to drink more water.....you?  Why is it that something so good for us can be so difficult to remember to consume.  We wander around all day, minds twittering away in our heads.  I think some re-programming in in order.  Maybe I'll put post its all over the house that say "water?".  That may be a start.  I ALWAYS feel better when I drink my water.  Need to make it the first thing I do in the morning before the coffee.

So, as of today....I am giving myself a 30 day challenge.  I am going to write it on the calendar every day if I drank my water that day.  I'll keep you posted to how it's going.  Join me....we can start a water revolution!

One note about water.....do your research.  Two good documentaries...."Water" and "Flow".
We bought an amazing water filter two years ago and it has made an enormous difference in our lives.  Click on the "Water for Life" link above to learn more about it.  It is really amazing.

Thanks for listening...
