Omega Rich Healthy Condiments

If you listen to our teleseminar, you’ve heard me say that any products made with hydrogenated oil are to be avoided like the plague. That includes things you and your family may very much enjoy – like mayonnaise and Ranch Dressing - all commercial salad dressings. Here are some recipes for making your own from scratch.

Omega Rich Mayonnaise
Makes about 1 ¾ Cups

Your oil source should be: Flaxseed Oil, Udo’s Perfected Blend or New Spirit Golden Omega Omega oil.

1 Egg
½ t. salt
1 ½ t. dried mustard
1/8 t. cayenne
pinch or drop of Stevia
11/4 cups oil (divided) (Flaxseed Oil or Udo’s Perfected Blend or New Spirit Golden Omega)
4 T fresh lemon juice

Allow oil and egg to come to room temperature.

Place ¼ cup of oil plus the egg, salt, mustard, cayenne and Stevia into food processor or blender. Blend until thoroughly combined.

With the food processor, beater or blender running, add an additional ½ cup of oil in a very thin stream (about the diameter of a thin strand of yarn).

When the ½ cup of oil has been added, add the lemon juice and blend briefly until combined. Add the final ½ cup of oil, once again in a fine stream. Refrigerate.

For variety: add 2 cloves of crushed garlic, 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon or dill, or more cayenne. You can also substitute vinegar for lemon juice.

For a wonderful fish sauce, substitute orange juice for the lemon juice and add 1 teaspoon paprika for more color.

Caution: Don’t make during thunderstorms – the ingredients don’t blend for some reason.


Omega Rich Ranch Dressing

Servings: 12

Again your oil source should be: Flaxseed Oil, Udo’s Perfected Blend or New Spirit Golden Omega Omega oil.

½ cup home made omega rich mayonnaise (above)
½ cup sour cream
½ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dry dill weed
1 tablespoon dried chives
1 tablespoon dried parsley
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 dash hot pepper sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon ground white pepper

Combine all ingredients. Refrigerate for at least ½ hour. If dressing is too thick, add a little extra buttermilk to thin,

Home Made Ketchup

12 Oz can Tomato Paste (you can make your own by just boiling down your fresh tomatoes until they make a thick paste).
12 oz water
1 tsp onion powder
½ cup white vinegar
1 –2 drops Stevia
1Tablespoon salt

Combine all ingredients and serve.

Home Made Mustard


1 T dried mustard
1 t your choice of vinegar
1 t cold water
1 drop Stevia

The equivalent of one Tablespoon of prepared mustard. You can add pickles, relish or garlic, a dash of hot sauce to spruce up the taste. This is just the basic.
