No Seed Oil Tahini Goddess Salad Dressing
If you’ve decided to cut back on or eliminate seed oils from your diet, chances are you’re constantly checking labels of your favorite store-bought items, only to be hit with one disappointment after another. From potato chips to hummus to salad dressings, it seems like everything is made with seed oils. One of my (and my family’s) long-time obsessions has been with Goddess tahini salad dressing. This is different than “Green Goddess” which I’ve never been a fan of. It’s sold under both the Annie’s and Trader Joe’s brand, and they're more or less identical, including the very first item on the ingredients list: Canola oil. Unwilling to let this unbelievable mixture of flavors disappear from our dinner table, I discovered to my surprise that it’s ridiculously easy to make, and that I already had all of the ingredients in my kitchen.
