Basic Salad Dressing 2 Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
2 tbsp red wine vinegar 2 tbsp acceptable vegetable oil 4 tbsp water 1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper 1/8 tsp garlic powder 1/8 tsp sugar 1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice
Recipe
Preparation
In jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine all ingredients. Shake well and refrigerate. Makes 1/2 cup. (Half of published recipe.) My note: I frequently use bottled lemon juice which has sodium listed, but there can't be much sodium in 1/2 tsp. divided among 8 servings. If you use fresh lemon juice, extra can be frozen in an ice cube tray or small container.

Diet hints and tips
In deciding on a diet, it is essential to attempt to lower your consumption of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some lower carb diet guidlines:
* Don't miss meals
Most low carb recipes are, well...., low in carbohydrates. Your body must have energy, and carbohydrates are a highly efficient source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires great care in monitoring you intake of energy, as any energy given by non-carbohydrate sources is slower acting.
* Know what is in your food
Don't trust advertizing that boasts 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the back of the product. A good number of are only slightly reduced and in some cases still higher than a competitors normal brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are the same.
