Passover Treats; Down with Fat Phobia

 The other day I read some diet advice which said to "throw away your salad dressing" and sprinkle lemon juice on your lettuce instead if you want to lose weight.  Hear that dull thudding sound in the distance?  It's me, hitting my head against the wall.  I mean, sure, if that salad dressing has sugar in it, please do throw it away, but a healthy salad dressing HELPS with weight loss even though it - gasp - has FAT in it!

Also, it's almost Passover, and there are lots of ways to make it easy to do it low-carb style, and I include treats for everyone, even if you don't celebrate this holiday.  Laura
