*STAPLE RECIPE* Lemon Tahini Dressing

It's no secret to most healthy home cooks that tahini dressing is *THE* best and easiest dressing to whip together for salads, bowls, sauces, and beyond! 

This happens to be what I do. Sometimes I skip the vinegar, sometimes I skip the maple, but that's the beauty of a simple dressing recipe - you can taste and adjust to reach the consistency and flavor that you like.

Tip: if using a blender, you can just throw a clove of garlic in there whole. if you're sensitive to raw garlic, try roasting it for a few minutes (in the peel - then just pop it out) first. If you're not using a blender, I recommend using a microplane zester to really get that garlic into a pulp. That way you avoid chunks of raw garlic!
