Oil Free Balsamic Dressing Recipe

I adapted this from other recipes – turmeric is one of the most anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant foods and the black pepper increases it’s levels in the body eight-fold. The mustard contains myrosinase which “activates” a potent anti-cancer compound (sulforaphane) in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli. The oil is optional but helps with turmeric absorption.

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp maple syrup
• 1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
• 1/2 tsp salt (optional)
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil (optional)
• 2 Tbsp plant-based milk
• 1 1/2 tsp turmeric

Directions

1. Mix all ingredients except oil together.
2. Add oil to mixture and mix well (I use a blender; you could use a whisk or latte frother).
