This one I got from Oprah, so that means it has to be good!
Ingredients
1 large egg yolk
1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
3/4 grape seed oil
herbs.....This time I used dill, but I think Thyme would be fantastic
salt and pepper
Optional
Curry
Directions
1. In a food processor blend egg yolk, dijon, and lemon juice. Then slowly add the grape seed oil. This will provide the base of your mayonnaise and then go nuts with the spices

Creamy Cauliflower broccoli soup WITHOUT cream or cheese
I just discovered the power of cauliflower. It makes soup super creamy without the calories.
Ingredients
1 onion
4-6 garlic cloves (you know how much you like)
olive or grape seed oil (for higher temperature grape seed is the way to go!)
2 heads of broccoli
1 head of cauliflower
3 bay leaves
2 bunches of dill
4-6 cups of vegetable/ beef/ chicken stock
salt and pepper
Optional add ons
You can also add asparagus or any other vegetable you like. Also try adding different spieces. Next time I am going to try adding potato! Of course add 1/2 of cream and cheese to make it extra yum!
Directions
1. Saute onions and garlic for 5- 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Add 4 cups of stock, dill and bay leaves.
3. Add all cut up vegetables. I add just enough stock to cover the vegetables. If you add too much water the soup will not be as thick. At this point add more stock or water if needed. bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes or until the veggies are all soft.
4. BLEND until smooth and creamy and pour back into pot.
Taste again and add more salt and pepper if needed.
Optional:
Once the mixture is blended add cream and cheese. Oh YUMMY
