With the 90 degree heatwave we've been having here in northern Colorado, I haven't been wanting to use the oven at all. One way I like to fill up without cooking anything is by having salad with lots of nuts and seeds. In this salad I threw in some chopped apples, sesame and Hemp Seeds, and walnuts. And I don't mean a sprinkle, I mean a handful of nuts and seeds per serving. Also, I have a theory that if the salad dressing is super yummy, then my kids will eat it. Usually I'm right ;-)This dressing is great on salad, for spring rolls or as dip for vegetables.
Ginger & mock Peanut Dressing:
Puree:
1/4 cup Sunbutter
1/4 cup almond butter
2 to 4 tbsp honey, depending on your taste
1/2 cup water
2 tsp gluten-free tamari sauce
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground ginger
1/4 cup coconut oil, liquified
Note: Leftovers will solidify in the refrigerator due to the coconut oil. Bring the dressing back to room temperature by heating it slightly before using it again.

Scrumptious salad, Kelly! It doesn't take much to make a salad super special as you show us all the time. Great dressing idea for sure. :-)
Happy Saturday!

mmmm.... this looks amazing! I think I will try it without the almondbutter (I also can't eat those) and see if it is still as satisfying!

Kelly, that salad looks delicious. I'm going to have to give your dressing recipe a whirl. :-)
I was so surprised by the heat this weekend, but it was perfect weather for moving. And...we don't even have a stove or oven in our summer place...so yummy salads are going to be a mainstay.
