highly praised dressing can be used on any
green salad, including any wild greens you gather. Stores well in a salad dressing
bottle you've saved from a store-bought dressing. Decorated with your own label,
these make sensational gifts because everyone thinks it is delicious as a spread
or dip as well as a dressing. 1

1
Tablespoon honey
2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
1 Tablespoon brewer's
yeast (or nutritional yeast), available from any health food store.

Place all ingredients in
a blender. Whir until completely smooth.. Stores for 1 month in refrigerator.
Toss over washed greens as desired.
