   I made this meal to feed to our sister missionaries and they loved it. We have them over often and finally I made something that we could all eat. Yay!
   
   
   I also make my own dressing, which I pour a little bit of this and that in.
   Depending on how much you need make accordingly and let call it...
   
   
   Garlic Infused Ginger Dressing
   
   
   

   -Garlic Infused Olive Oil

   -Coconut Aminos
   -Sesame Oil
   -Squeezed Lemon
   -Ground Ginger
   -S&P
   
   
   I've also added some vinegar, just a little bit, and maple syrup to sweeten it up for guests. Infused oils are delicious a must do in cooking! Add the most of the olive oil, then just a bit less of coconut aminos or soy sauce, a little bit of sesame oil for that toasted sesame flavor, as little or as much fresh squeezed lemon as you like, prob less though, about a pinch of ground ginger, and salt and pepper to taste.
   
   
   We also had this oh so good...
   
   
   
   
   
   Which I was also able to enjoy for the first time in who knows how long!!
   
   
   I made Against All Grain Paleo Pie Crust.
   (gotta buy her book for the recipe.)
   
   
   
   
   
   Beans are used as my "pie weights" while baking.
   
   
   Then find my previous Lemon Meringue Pie post for the filling.
   
   
   Oh happy day :)
