Butter Lettuce Salad
with Caper Dressing
•Soy-free •Dairy-free •Nut-free
I love salads of simple greens tossed with a delicious dressing. Feel free to dress
this salad up with additional veggies, if you like.
In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic, Dijon, and vinegar. Add the olive
oil and whisk until incorporated. Stir in the capers, and season to taste with
salt and pepper. Toss the desired amount of dressing with the lettuce and
serve.
Yield: 6 servings
Chef’s Tip
Capers are salty, so be mindful of the amount of salt you add to the
dressing—you may need less than you think.
Sweet Tea Mint Julep
•Soy-free •Dairy-free •Nut-free
Two Southern classics combine here into one perfect cocktail. True sweet-tea connoisseurs
debate which kind of tea to use. I think Lipton or Luzianne both work great.
To make the sweet tea: Combine the tea bags with the boiling water. Let
steep for 10 minutes. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve. Remove the tea
bags and chill.
To make the mint julep: Put the crushed ice into a cocktail shaker along
with the mint, bourbon, and ¼ cup (60 ml) of the sweet tea. Shake to chill
and bring out the flavor of the mint. Pour the drink along with the crushed
ice into a tall glass and serve with a straw.
Yield: 1 serving
Chef’s Tip
Feel free to double the recipe for the sweet tea to offer to guests who
choose not to have a cocktail.
