Dana Carpender’s Low-Carb Poppy Seed Dressing Recipe

Low-Carb Poppy Seed Dressing Recipe is very popular, especially for any salad that includes fruit, but the commercial ones not only contain questionable oils, but also lots of sugar. Make this healthy, delicious version instead.

Yield: 3 servings 1x
Diet: Diabetic

Ingredients

Units Scale

1/4 cup oil (I use MCT oil or sunflower oil, but light olive oil would work, too.)
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon liquid stevia
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon minced onion
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame seeds

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Put the oil, vinegar, stevia, Worcestershire sauce, onion, and paprika in your food processor or blender and run for 15 seconds or so to pulverize the onion.
Add the poppy and sesame seeds, run for just a second to mix them in (but not pulverize them!), and turn off the machine.
Pour into a jar with a lid and chill for 1 hour or more.
Shake before using.

Notes

Burma, who tested this with the Asparagus-Strawberry Salad link, said that it was worthy of its own entry. She also says that she might like it a tiny bit better with only 2 teaspoons of poppy seeds, but the other diners thought the poppy seed concentration was perfect. So the question is, how much do you like poppy seeds?

Every taste is an acquired taste. If you’ve just recently gone low-carb, say as a New Year’s resolution, you may be overwhelmed by the sheer difference from your old diet. I encourage you to do so rather than using low-carb breads and such to make your low-carb diet resemble your old diet. Those can be useful. Bridge foods helping you to find a new normal, but not only are they, yes, processed foods often overpriced and sometimes deceptively labeled.
