That tiny little seed sure is mighty with so many health benefits to offer. We thought with Spring underway and fresh salads being the perfect meal, we should share one of our favorite salad dressing recipes with you. That so happens to be made out of tahini. How perfect is that?!?

4- cups organic raw hulled white sesame seeds (sprouted if you can)
3-4 TBS Olive oil or Sunflower oil
