Preparing the Vinaigrette

Preparing the Vinaigrette

  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small clove of garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp sweetener

    Absolutely delicious with the homemade pita bread. This was pretty simple, and very good. Do plan for the kneading and rising of the dough. I kneaded the full 7 minutes with a fairly stiff dough, and also substituted half whole wheat flour, which worked just fine. I used everything else in the recipe including the dressing.
