Notes

NOTE: Don’t want to make your own dressing? Look for dressings in the Natural Foods section of your grocery store. Avoid dressings with oils that have the words “hydrogenated” or “partially hydrogenated.” Avoid dressings with too much sugar. Try to stay less than 5g/serving where possible or choose to use less of the dressing that is higher. (5 grams is roughly the amount of sugar in a level teaspoon).
