It’s time to give up the bottle! Not the wine bottle… that’s a pleasure you should enjoy in 
moderation (as long as it’s organic). I’m talking about bottled salad dressing. Almost every brand is made with vegetable and seed oils, rich in omega-6 fatty acids, which promote inflammation… and ultimately cancer and heart disease.
But not to worry… with just one drizzle of this bright vinaigrette, you’ll gladly put the bottle in your past.
