Tahini Lemon Garlic Salad Dressing. It's Perfect.

3 comments

I've been stuck on the ole' fresh squeeze lemon, sea salt and olive oil dressing and decided to try something new. Creamy dressings (made with dairy) aren't my thing and I wanted something with more substance - this is my new most favorite, perfect, delish dressing! 
I'm getting dinner ready and made some brown rice, stole some rice and poured a bit of this dressing over it, was amazing. I highly recommend you make. 
* I used 4 large cloves of garlic, might have been a bit overkill. Next time will scale it down to 2 or 3.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup tahini
1-2 garlic cloves
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
Fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Directions: In a food processor, process garlic first then add all ingredients until smooth. Makes about 1.5 cups.
