LEMON POPPY SEED/KHUS KHUS SALAD DRESSING

 This creamy Lemon Poppy Seed/Khus Khus salad dressing is perfect for a veggie loaded salad you would want to have as lunch or dinner. This dressing is a great way to spruce up your salad.

This salad dressing is a low carb version. 

What I like in a home made dressing is that you get to customize everything from the spice, salt and sugar. And this salad doesn't take any time at all. It is just a add everything to blender and blitz kind of dressing. This salad dressing comes together in just about 5 minutes. It stays well in the refrigerator upto 10 days and can be used as and when required.
