I tried making my own ranch dip before but it wasn’t very good. I’ll try out this one and see how it compares. Thank you for the post ride tips.

Hi Jeremy…raw spinach on it’s own is great. But, for full recovery, you’ll still need additional carbs, protein, and fluids (none of which are really supplied by the spinach). Take care!

Is it okay for me to eat fresh raw spinach on it’s own right out of my garden after a ride? Should I add it to something else instead? I like the taste of spinach on it’s own.

Yes, extra antioxidants are great in recovery. And, if your recovery includes healthy bacteria (from yogurt, for example), you absorb more of those antioxidants. Thanks for your comment!

I agree – most commercial dressings are loaded with fats that are detrimental, chemical flavorings and ingredients, etc. A good homemeade extra virgin olive oil dressing, or one that’s higher protein, like this recipe, is a much better alternative. Enjoy!

Good salad dressings are a must for me. And, with this one, you can tweak it to your liking… I love this website, too!:)
