    Creamy dijon tahini dressing with only four ingredients, and it only takes 5 minutes to prepare.  You may already have all the ingredients in your pantry.  This recipe uses a little maple syrup to cut through the bitterness of the tahini, lemon juice to brighten it up, and dijon mustard because it adds flavor.

    I have another dijon dressing recipe made from cashews, can you tell that I like dijon mustard?  With this one, there are no soaking cashews involved.  It may thicken up while chilling in the fridge if it does whisk in a tablespoon of water at a time to thin it until it reaches your desired consistency.

    If you want more ideas for tahini-based dressing try my smoky tahini dressing or lemon herb tahini sauce.

    Easy Meal Planning with Oil-Free Tahini Dressing

    I previously used a version of this dressing on my roasted vegetable quinoa bowl recipe but it goes great on just a big green salad loaded with veggies.  For simple meals, it also goes great on top of a big bowl full of grains, beans, greens, and veggies. 

    For easy meal planning, fill a quarter of your plate with your favorite grain (ex. brown rice, quinoa, barley), another quarter with your favorite cooked beans (ex. chickpeas, black beans, pinto beans), a quarter with your favorite greens (ex. spinach, kale, mixed greens), then use the last quarter for any of your other favorite raw or roasted vegetables.  Then top it with a tasty sauce or dressing.
