Cheesy Tahini-Lemon-Herb Dressing & Sauce
from tracy childs: ove a creamy and very flavorful dressing. This one fits the bill! I put it on massaged kale, orange peppers, avocado, lettuce, arugula, red cabbage, fennel, and white beans, but any salad would be enhanced by it. Since this is so tasty, you might want to double the recipe and keep more in the refrigerator. You can also put it over steamed veggies, baked potatoes, or brown rice and vegetables, or you can even marinate tofu in it.
