| My mother in law is on a completely raw food diet, for health reasons, and is in need of a good salad dressing recipe.
She can have Flax seed oil, but not veg. oil etc. She has one recipe that is flavorless and she hates to use it. She really needs to eat more, but with the bland taste of the veggies, she isn't eating at all. Any help would be very appreciated, Thank you!! |

| I would assume she is able to eat herbs, garlic, etc.? Should be able to substitute flaxseed oil in most vinaigrettes: HERB DRESSING (2/3 cup) 1/2 cup vegetable or oilive oil 4 fresh basil leaves, chopped 3 TBL wine vinegar (I've used fresh lemon juice) 1 TBL finely chopped onion 1 TBL water 1 TBL finely chopped parsley 1/2 tsp salt 1/8 tsp thyme 1/8 tsp marjoram Combine all ingredinets in a jar with a tight lid & shake vigorously. Let stand 10 minutes. Serve over salad greens.~~ GRAPEFRUIT FRENCH DRESSING (2 cups) Combine the salt, paprika, pepper, tarragon, sugar & oil. Let stand for 1 hour. Add the grapefruit juice & lemon juice & store in the refrigerator until serving time.~~ |

| Thank you all so much, she is going to try these. She just isn't eating anything due to it "not tasting good" to her. I can taste it and it is fine, so I am trying to find her something she will like. Thank you so much |

| I'm not sure where you live. If good tomatoes are available, this one is tasty: TOMATO-PARMESAN DRESSING 1 large vine-ripened tomato, cored and cut into 8 pieces Just before serving, blend all ingredients in blender at medium speed until smooth. Serve immediately over salad greens. |

| Have you tried : Balsamic vinegar, mustard , and honey. I just mix this up as I need it. This is very good over a salad with sundried tomato/olive oil and crumbled Feta cheese. You can add anything to salad. |

| I don't have a recipe to suggest, but I made a bit of an assumption from the diet and her lack of appetite....if she is on some kind of treatments they can affect her sense of taste and smell. They can make things taste bad, or take the flavour away completely so food no longer looks/smells/tastes appetizing. Some medications and treatments lower the appetite to begin with, which certainly does not help. I hope you find a recipe that she enjoys.
