Elevate your salads with the vibrant flavor of Lemon Tahini Dressing. This zesty concoction features the rich creaminess of tahini, enhanced by the bright, citrusy notes of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Achieving the perfect balance, a dash of water is added for a smooth and pourable consistency. The medley of garlic powder or minced garlic, along with the classic duo of salt and pepper, imparts a savory depth to the dressing. A final touch of apple cider vinegar adds a hint of tanginess, creating a refreshing and versatile dressing that complements a variety of salads.
