Basic Salad Dressing Ii 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.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet tips:
* Know what is in your food
Don't believe food packaging that boasts 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the back of the tin or packet. A good number of are only marginally less and in some instances still more than a competitors usual brand. In addition, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are identical.
* Don't ignore the fiber
Reducing the carbs in your diet usually results in reduction in fiber also. Look at reduced carb recipes that are rich in fiber to restore the balance.
