Spinach Green Goddess Dressing Serves 8 Nothing tastes fresher than homemade salad dressing! This extra “greened-up” version also makes a great replacement for mayonnaise in chicken salad. 1 cup firmly packed spinach, stems removed ¾ cup sour cream ½ cup fresh parsley ½ cup chopped chives 3 Tbs. olive oil 3 anchovies (optional) 2 Tbs. lemon juice ½ tsp. monk fruit (or sweetener of your choice) ¼ tsp. lemon zest 2–3 tsp. green foods powder Salt and pepper to taste Place all ingredients into blender, and blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Store up to 3 days in the fridge.

Arugula Aioli Serves 10 This delicate lemony sauce goes especially well with fish. But it’s also delicious with roast chicken, and it makes an excellent spread for sandwiches. 1 cup firmly packed arugula leaves ¼ cup chives 1 egg yolk 2 tsp. lemon juice 2–3 tsp. green foods powder ½ tsp. salt 1 cup olive oil
