  • 5 loosely filled cups romaine lettuce roughly chopped (110 g)
  • 1/4-1/2 cup raw sunflower kernels
  • spicy sweet tahini dressing
  • 1/4 cup smooth/runny tahini
  • 1/4 cup liquid coconut aminos (this is recommended because unlike other soy sauce alternatives, this is what gives the dressing a hint of sweet flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon quality hot sauce (i use sky valley f i wouldn't recommend louisiana hot sauce)
  • note: it is important to use a quality tahini that fresh taste. if you use a bitter tahini, it may give an off taste to the dressing. also, if yours is really thick, you may need some water to thin out the dressing. i have also made this with creamy almond butter instead of tahini and it is delicious as we

Prepare all of the veggies by chopped and spiralizing/shredding.To make the dressing, simply combine the ingredients and whisk until smooth. Add water if needed to thin out. I use a very smooth tahini, so it was the perfect consistency. Taste and add any salt if desired. My tahini has a little salt in it and of course the hot sauce and aminos both have sodium, so there was no need to add extra salt.I've also eaten this salad with cannellini beans, so you can always add those if you want an extra filling salad.
