Notes
- Note 1: I mentioned above, you can use tofu or white beans if you’d like this dressing to be lower fat, but I think that the flavors marry better when there’s a fat to combine them. To keep things oil-free, you could use coconut cream or soaked cashews (or even sunflower seeds!) in your blender. If you’re cool with oil, you could certainly use that instead.
