Sake Lime Vinaigrette – 20 Calories
The Grand Wailea Resort and Spa in Maui offers a legendary menu of Pacific Rim cuisine. This dressing is served with its Ahi Tuna entrees, but it melds nicely with any lighter-fare seafood salad because a little bit goes a long way, which is usually the case with intensely flavored, sharp flavors. You’ll use less if your tastebuds are “alive” with sufficient flavor. We like this drizzled over sashimi, sushi, and canned albacore tuna flakes, in place of mayonnaise.

Spa Index Kitchen Notes
If you have access to bottled ginger juice, by all means use it -- we love Ginger People juice, available in specialty markets, usually in the Asian foods aisle. Thai chili sauce can be found in the same aisle. This recipe makes approximately 1 cup of dressing, with only a little bit needed to drizzle over entrees and salads.
