Paleo Thousand Island Dressing
When I moved over to Paleo I had to give up my dairy-based sauces, but, after my few days of mourning, I got over it real quick. Paleo or not, dairy and I were just NOT getting along. Part of my Paleo journey has been to find delicious and tasty alternatives to my old flames. One test that I used to help me find my food intolerances was the EverlyWell Food Sensitivity test. This test gave me a clear view of foods that I am intolerant to through a simple blood test you could do at home.
