The last time that I successfully did the candida diet many years ago I gave up salad. I hate eating salad without dressing and could not find a salad dressing that did not include vinegar, sugar or some other ingredient not allowed on a yeast free diet. This time around with the hope of bringing salad back into my diet, especially since it is a great way to eat raw vegetables, I searched for a salad dressing recipe. The recipe below is by far my favorite salad dressing and it seems to go well with a variety of salads that I have prepared. It is pretty easy to make. I am not use to cooking with fresh herbs so it did take me a little while to add the fresh thyme and tarragon to the dressing. Other than that I found this recipe extremely easy to execute. I hope that you enjoy this recipe as much as I do. This is from the The Candida Control Cookbook: What You Should Know and What You Should Eat to Manage Yeast Infections (New Revised & Updated Edition) by Gail Burton.
- ½ cup grapeseed oil (Safflower and Olive Oil work well too. You can usually find Safflower oil at Whole Foods)
- 1 large tomato
- ¼ cup lemon juice (Use fresh lemon juice from lemons rather than the bottle type which has additives)
- 2 cloves garlic
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon fresh tarragon
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 1 packet stevia
- 1 tablespoons sesame seeds
- Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor
- Blend until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed

I just wanted to say “THANK YOU!!” for your salad dressing recipe! It is delicious!! I did not add the thyme and tarragon, as I did not have any handy, but it was still great!!! I have been doing yeast free, gluten free, dairy free, and sugar free, trying to get rid of my psoriasis for the last week, and I have noticed a huge difference in my skin already, but I missed my salads as it was always my favorite and I could not find dressing!! I am so thankful for this recipe!!! I will use it forever!!
thank you for the salad dressing recipe! it is delicious! I am so glad to have my salad back!
