I just made this recipe yesterday and it makes me want to eat my lettuce. Originally it is from the IP recipe book, but of course I modified it.
Soy Sesame Dressing
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup olive oil - the book says 1 cup canola oil!
1 Tbsp sesame seeds
chopped spring onions (small handful) - book says 1/8 medium onion.
2 Tbsp lemon juice (I squeezed 1/2 a lemon into it)
pepper (lots- 8 turns of my pepper mill) - 1/2-3/4 tsp
The book lists 1 1/2 tsp Splenda or Stevia also. I thought this tasted good without it.
In a food processor or blender, mix all ingredients together until onion is liquefied. The recipe book says to add the oil last after the other ingredients are mixed.
1.Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes. Add garlic, thyme, fennel seed, salt, pepper and saffron; cook for 20 seconds.
2.Stir in tomatoes, broth and green beans. Bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
3.Increase heat to medium, stir in scallops and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes more.
Phase I people:
Because of the scallops and tomatoes, eat only on a day when you haven't eaten a restricted item.
Hi everyone. I'm new to everything about this. I am on day two of the IP diet and struggling to find tastes that I like. I did well with the mushroom soup yesterday. I stocked up on WF dressings and I can't stomach them. Does anyone have ideas or recipes to help me out? Also, I have seem some posts about alternative places to order protein drinks. Is that in place of the vanilla and chocolate drinks from IP, or is it something different for a later phase? Finally, is any lettuce acceptable (bib, romaine, etc)? Like I said, I'm new to all of this and any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
In a Good Season's dressing container (free with purchase at the grocery store)
fill it with vinegar to the V line
In a different small container mix the raspberry jelly mix with 2 oz of COLD COLD water, shake and add to dressing container
fill until the O line with Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Add 1 tsp of poppy seeds
Make Naked Buffalo Wings (bake at 350 for 10 min on each side, seasoned with salt pepper and garlic powder. Coat with Frank's Red Hot Sauce and cook another 5 min.)
Cut 4 wings into bite size pieces and toss with romaine lettuce and Walden Farms Blue Cheese dressing!

welcome Newsie Mom. None of us(well, maybe a few)like the WF anything. At the beginning of this recipe thread there are tons of dressing recipes.
Look on the february IP chat for people's ideas about protien powders/drinks to replace the shakes. You might also visit lindora.com or newlifestylediet.com for alternatives to the IP packets. Make very sure to read the carb counts closely, as some of the foods are higher in carbs. I'll try to post the Lindora and IP carb charts for comparison.
