Wow! I can't believe 2009 is almost over and I am surviving my 3rd winter here. What a fantastic year we have had. We had Dorit here New Year's Eve 2008, Cody went to Australia for a month, I did an almost 92 day juice fast while in Texas for 3 months, Sherry Strong from Australia was here and our biggest event ever with David Wolfe! Abigail turned 1, I started back at Boss Lubricants and now Cody and I are revving up for a fantastic New Year, New You for 2010.
We have lots of classes scheduled for the New Year along with some exciting programs to come. So stay tune and stop in often! |

Hemp Ranch Dressing
Yields: 2 cups
Our version of this classic is rich and creamy without the dairy! With hemp seeds as the base, this dressing is high in protein, vitamins and minerals, and essential fatty acids.
by Chef Alicia M. Ojeda
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups hemp seeds
1 cup water
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 Tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Sea Salt
1/4 teaspoon dried dill or dried basil
1 pinch black pepper
Directions:
Place all ingredients except for the dried herbs in a blender. Blend until smooth.
Add the herbs and pulse them into the blender, being careful not to over-blend because it will turn your dressing green.
Store in the refrigerator in a sealed glass jar. Will keep for up to 7-10 days.
Variations:
To serve this dressing as a dip, be sure to make it in advance as it thickens when it is well-chilled. Serve with your favorite crunchy vegetables at your next party.
For an onion dip stir in 1/4 cup dried onion flakes.
Serving Suggestion:
For a classic "garden salad" enjoy Hemp Ranch Dressing over a bed of romaine greens tossed with shaved red cabbage, shredded carrots, and sweet cherry tomatoes, sprinkled with nutritional yeast for extra creaminess.
