Health and fertility benefits of Green Goddess Dressing

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system. Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Basil is an excellent stress reliever, and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.

Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 cup packed fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
4 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons fresh chopped tarragon
1 clove garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Crudite, such as blanched radish, cauliflower, broccoli and sugar snap peas, for serving
Mixed field green salad, for serving

Instructions

Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, basil, parsley, chives, tarragon and garlic, processing until smooth and scraping down the sides as necessary. Season with salt and pepper.

Cook's Note: The dressing will thicken as it chills. This is a great way to use up extra fresh herbs, switch out whatever herbs you have on hand.
