Still riding our Goop Wellness Summit high, we can’t help but post another GP inspired favourite. This one comes courtesy of her cookbook, It’s All Good.
And so good is this Green Goddess Dressing, we eat it nearly every day. That’s right. Open our fridge at any given time, and you’ll find a bottle ready to go!
Over a bed of arugula with some sliced avocado, pumpkin seeds and salt, it’s our gorgie go-to lunch without fail. Creamy in texture and full of zing-like flavour, it’s also super healthy too, thanks to its goop-clean ingredients, including cilantro as its green base.
And did you know: Research shows cilantro is not only high in Vitamins A, C and K, it’s also proven to help remove metal toxins from the body, protect against oxidative stress, lower anxiety and promote better sleep. It’s also gut-friendly and called the ‘anti-diabetic’ plant in Europe, as it helps lower blood sugar levels and provide cardiovascular support too. (Reference: Dr. Axe.com)
As for the recipe part, it’s as simple as they come. All you need is a handful of ingredients plus a quality blender.
And while perfect over any salad, it’s also great served as a dip with veggies, or as a condiment on a burger or sandwich. Drizzled over avo-toast or a poached egg? Those too. Like the book says, it’s all good.
