Recipe Notes
Lot of people use Vinegar for dressing but I usually avoid it as its processed and lemon juice is fresh.
A lot of salad dressings have sugar in it which can be completely avoided as it adds calories to the dressing and hence the salad.
Salad should be for detox and weight-loss or when you want to relax your system, so going natural and sugar-less is the key.
