This Middle Eastern-inspired salad dressing has only 50 calories and 4g of fat from whole food sources: sesame seeds (the prime ingredient in tahini). Diluting the mix with lemon juice and some warm water gets your tahini to the right consistency, and turns a high-calorie food into a lighter dressing. 

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove grated or crushed
  • To taste salt and pepper

Directions

  1. Add all the ingredients to a mason jar. Put the lid on tightly, and shake to combine.
