Catalina Style Dressing

December 7, 2013 by Leave a Comment

I love being able to whip up a keto salad dressing from scratch with my emulsion blender! Even if I don't have my homemade ketchup on hand for this recipe, it only takes a few minutes more to make it first. Keeping my fermented ketchup or mayo (which last quite a while) on hand really makes this a cinch! They are the base for most of my salad dressings. The Catalina is one of our favorites. It has a tangy sweet taste that is both subtle and rich. It goes well with just about any kind of salad ...

Fortunately, your salad doesn't have ...

The dressing is a variation of homemade mayonnaise using a ...
