Fresh Dill Salad Dressing

Fresh Dill Salad Dressing

1 cup olive oil

1 cup lemon juice

5-7 cloves garlic, minced

several stems of fresh dill, minced

overnight before using.

the basic recipe for most of my salads is olive oil and lemon juice in equal amounts with heavy garlic and some sea salt. Cilantro, basil, and other fresh herbs can be altered to the base to add some variety.

I knew immediately what happened as this had happened a couple of years before I got systemic candida. swollen eyelid again ... a space heater reaction At that time, I didn’t have floor heat in my one-room so used a space heater. Then one day when I woke up, both of my eyes had almost swollen shut. I was so ashamed to go anywhere, but did go to the store immediately and bought a long duck-billed baseball cap and wore it low for three days as I waited for the swelling to go down. I also went immediately to the hospital to consult with docs about what the hey was happening. Allergy testing was recommended because I had cats and the docs all thought it was them.
