Green goddess salad dressing is one of my mid-summer favorites. There is nothing more refreshing than a salad topped with a salad — and all freshly picked from the garden, except perhaps some fresh raw juice to wash it all down. This raw probiotic green goddess salad dressing will give you a huge nutritional punch and help your body absorb those vital nutrients packed into every leafy green salad bite. It contains no soy, wheat, gluten, corn, preservatives, or chemicals, and none of their derivatives, so you can feel great about giving it to your family.

1 cup homemade raw curds* (whey recipe recipe.)
2 tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar (Use this Apple Cider Vinegar recipe or Braggs Brand.)

1/4 cup extra virgin olive, grapeseed, or coconut oil

*To make this vegan, simply soak a cup of raw cashews or sunflower seeds in water overnight and using them as a substitute for the raw milk curds. Drain them well and add a ½ cup fresh kombucha or kefir before blending. Also, using an equal amount of raw ripe avocado in place of the raw milk curds will work, too. Just add the kombucha or kefir in place of the water to add the healthy probiotics.
