I must admit that salad dressing is my big “frustration” with this program. I have come up with one salad dressing that I really do like … it’s “creamy” and just “rich” enough to satisfy, plus it’s a welcome change from vinegar.
for 1 serving:
1 heaping teaspoon of Tahini
the juice from 1/2 of a fresh lemon
— with a spoon or fork, stir together until mixture becomes “creamy” and thick.
— then add 2 to 3 tablespoons of fresh garden herbs that are finely chopped. I generally use fresh parsely, chives, fennel (yum, yum!), and 1/2 to 1 clove of garlic. Stir this into the thick tahini/lemon mixture. It should be a paste-like consistency.
— then slowly add cold water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until you have the consistency you desire (I generally add approx. 4 to 5 teaspoons of water).
— now you’re ready to pour your dressing over a lovely fresh salad and enjoy.

Hi,
I just came across your site as a recommendation from my wife’s friend. I’m trying to reverse diabetes on my vegan diet and this means under 10% of calories can be fat. So after reading this recipe I went to the fridge and got my Tahini bottle for nutrition info. There are 190 calories in 2 tablespoons and 150 of those calories are fat. I saw a second recipe and it had “low fat” ingredients, and so I have to recommend that your fat free recipies actually be labelled as so.
thank you so much for listening.
I’m very glad to be on your site and will be grateful for adding some variety to my menu.
Respectfully,
Matt Schifter
