It’s too hot to cook and I’ve got a fridge full of beautiful greens so we’re eating a LOT of salads over here. However, I started getting a little tired of my typical olive oil-balsamic vinegar-honey-mustard-type dressings, so I dug through my fridge and tried something new!
It turned out pretty well, so I thought I’d share it on the blog. A good dressing can liven up even a super simple salad. My daily usual has become a seasonally delicious combination of lettuce (a mix of head and mixed greens), cucumber and pitted cherries. This dressing is the…uh…cherry? on top. Of the other cherries.
I hope you enjoy!
Scape Sesame Salad Dressing
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup goat cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2-3 garlic scapes
- water
- salad of choice
Instructions
-
Remove woody part of the scapes, and then cut into small pieces.
-
Add the yogurt, tahini, goat cheese, olive oil and apple cider vinegar to a food processor or magic bullet. Blend to mix well. Add the scapes and blend again. Add water a tbsp at a time and mix until you achieve your desired consistency.
-
Serve immediately over your favourite salad, or store in the fridge! I'm finding it thickens in the fridge, so I just add more water and mix when I want to use it again. Enjoy!
