Fat-Burning Raspberry Vinaigrette

Pin itFollow us 148.4k

As you may have guessed, this recipe uses MCT oil that is known for its fat-burning properties. I've previously used in this salad dressing.

It's super-easy to make and can be stored in the fridge ready to be drizzled over summer salads. It's best served over spinach, chicken and goat cheese. Optionally, you can try adding some poppy seeds that will enhance the flavour of any berry vinaigrette.

Here are some more tips on how you can modify this keto vinaigrette:

• try strawberries, blackberries or blueberries instead of raspberries
• add a tablespoon of poppy seeds and make a similar recipe like the one in my app!
• try other healthy oils instead of olive oil and / or MCT oil: avocado, macadamia or walnut oils are my favourites
