Dressing Yield 1 1/2 cups
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon vegan, organic white wine
1 mango, peeled, pitted, and chopped
2 dates, pitted
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon Himalayan crystal salt
1/8 teaspoon red Limo pepper*
2 carrots, sliced into thin rounds, using a mandoline or v-slicer

Garnish: 2-4 leaves fresh basil, chopped

Blend all of the ingredients together (except the carrots and basil) until creamy. Drizzle a few tablespoons of the dressing over the sliced carrots. Garnish with a few leaves of fresh basil, chopped.

*Red Limo pepper is available online at NaturalZing or substitute with cayenne pepper, of which you might want to add a little more.

Kindness
Through kindness, the world softens.
Be kind to all beings and things.
In this way, creation returns to its natural state of beauty.
