SIMPLE "HIPPIE ERA" DRESSINGS FOR MARINATED RAW VEGETABLE SALADS..these you make overnight in the fridge...perfect for hot weather dining al fresco



The following recipes are great for any vegetable marinade.
Tender vegetables such as sprouted beans should be marinated for just 1 hour so add last.
Do not marinate lettuce, it will wilt. Simply serve the marinated vegetables WITH bowls of fresh washed and crisp lettuce and other salad greens
This is a great way to enjoy raw root vegetables at the height of their season so, yes these can also be used for winter salads.
No soy, salt or pepper is used in any of the recipes, simply substitute with kelp, dulse (sea vegetables) and/or nutritional yeast.

Enjoy great, SUPER HEALTHY, food IDEAS from the PEACE LOVIN' TIMES OF THE 60'S & 70'S
