It works fine from a flavor perspective (I used kalamata olives, roasted garlic, dijon and lemon juice). My only complaint was the color. It looks sort of dirty (if that makes sense). The flavor is good it isn't photogenic.<br /><br />If you come up with a different combination please let me know. I would love to hear about it!<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-12910532738329772122010-03-05T18:12:44.525-05:002010-03-05T18:12:44.525-05:00Have you ever tried making a dressing using whole ...Have you ever tried making a dressing using whole olives? I was thinking about this the other day, wondering if whole olives have the benefits attributed to extra virgin olive oil. Seems logical but I can't find anything on this - or even decide which olives to use if I should actually get around to trying!Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09627772096483104687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-45749499400085288312010-03-05T12:22:20.608-05:002010-03-05T12:22:20.608-05:00Brandi,

But once you get rid of it, you really don't miss it (which I would never have believed if someone had told me that so I understand if you are skeptical).<br /><br />talk to you later,<br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-87802039857499650562010-03-05T12:11:36.211-05:002010-03-05T12:11:36.211-05:00Yum yum yum!!!!

But it isn't healthy, no matter how good it tastes. I don't miss it now either, which I never thought would happen.<br /><br />Your are right about the kitchen. It does make it much easier to clean without the oil film that would slowly coat things. I don't miss that one bit.<br /><br />I was quite psyched that Dan was not going into work this weekend. He will probably do some work from home, but at least he will be home and his time will be flexible.<br /><br />talk to you soon,<br />AliVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-32249463380553143962010-03-05T10:07:25.536-05:002010-03-05T10:07:25.536-05:00You know, Ali, I'm sure that we would all happ...You know, Ali, I'm sure that we would all happily come help you with your purging project if you would just cook for us. :-) Your salad is so pretty! And as you know, I agree with you on the oil, though I shared the same challenge giving up olive oil (even telling Dr. McDougall that he'd pry my bottle of extra virgin olive oil out of my cold, dead hand. He said if that's the way I wanted it... lol). Now I don't miss that oily-greasy feel on my food... or in my kitchen! <br /><br />That's great that Dan doesn't have to go into the office this weekend! I hope you do get to do something fun, and that you get the pretty weather they've predicted. You BOTH deserve a fun, relaxing break! ENJOY!! :-)Laloofahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07256023593175821427noreply@blogger.com
