Many people are looking to improve their health by eliminating wheat, corn, and/or dairy from their diets. I have been experimenting with recipes that are free of wheat, corn, and dairy for several years. I've created "Ideal Ingredients" to share not only what I have learned, but also to share a delicious and healthy way of eating!

Special Note: If you are also avoiding eggs, you may substitute the following for 1 egg in my baked goods recipes.
1 egg = 1/3 cup applesauce OR 1/4 cup mashed banana OR 1 T ground flaxseed + 3 T water

Lebanese Cabbage Salad

This recipe comes to you courtesy of my mom. She developed it after eating a similar salad at a favorite Middle Eastern restaurant.
I love the fresh flavors of this salad. The lemon juice, salt, and garlic give it just the right zing! And don't let the cabbage scare you away. The other ingredients provide the perfect balance to it's strong taste. Try it, you'll like it!

Combine the following:
1/2 head green cabbage, chopped (4 cups)
1 large tomato, diced
1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/3 cup green onions, chopped

Whisk together:
1 T lemon juice
1 t garlic powder
1/2 t salt
dash of pepper
1 T olive oil

Toss vegetables and dressing until well-combined. Marinate for 3o minutes. Serve.
