Tahini Green Goddess Dressing
Sometimes I feel like a Goddess.
And why not? I’m beautiful (if I do say so mysef..), modest (ha!), and do all that I can to honor and respect my body, mind, and spirit.
I enter the qualifying rhelm of Goddess-ness by eating absolutely tongue-gripping foods.
One of which may or may not be this incredibly vibrant and tangy Tahini Green Goddess Dressing.
The blogger fell in love with "Tortas de Aceite," a delectable flatbread made with olive oil from Spain, at first taste. Following the fast disappearance of the store-bought version, the blogger made the decision to attempt producing them at home. Cake flour, olive oil, anise seeds, yeast, and a few other basic ingredients are needed for this recipe. Before baking, the dough is split into rounds, smoothed out, coated with egg white, and dusted with sugar. The recipe was modified from one that the writer found online, and she hopes that readers will find the handmade version to be just as delicious as the original. All in all, it's a simple recipe for a distinct and delicious flatbread with Spanish influences.
Created from the overwhelming craving for Fudenjuce’s Green Goddess Dressing that I have so lovingly drenched my vegetarian Middle Eastern Burrito in on occasion.
Delightfulicious.
Loaded with crisp cilantro.
Thickened with creamy tahini.
Claimed and overtaken by tamari (soy sauce), fresh lemon juice, spicy garlic and cayenne pepper, sweet, sweet maple syrup, salt, pepper… ooooh lala!
Given the uncertain times surrounding Easter, the blogger decided on a simplified yet humorous Peter Rabbit-themed Easter tablescape. With a vintage picnic basket, fake plants, and figurines of Peter Rabbit, among other components, the blogger made a playful and carefree arrangement mostly with objects from around the house. The blogger had to settle for cupboard basics like carrots and celery, even though the original plan called for fresh produce from the garden. Rather than stressing over making a lavish feast, the emphasis was on finding happiness in the little things. The blogger underlined the value of appreciating what is already there rather than dwelling on what is absent. All things considered, this inventive and resourceful Easter table arrangement perfectly embodies the essence of the occasion.
This sweet little sauce-of-the-God(dess)’s is absolutely incredible. One I definitely make often.
And pour over everything (chicken, tofu, salads, vegetables, spoons).
Not only is it delightful, it’s also super low in fat and calories. No guilt associated with slathering on anything and everything.
It's a great opportunity to celebrate being sixty years old in style. This blog post in Spanish provides original suggestions for wishing someone a very special 60th birthday. For example, "Congratulations on 60 wonderful years full of achievements and wonderful memories." are examples of genuine remarks that recognize the person's lifetime of experiences and wisdom. Additionally, the article suggests lighter farewells that make fun of aging, such as "Welcome to the club of the wise and experienced!" All in all, the blog offers a selection of heartfelt, humorous, and authentic 60th birthday wishes in Spanish that may be altered to the recipient's exact specifications. The proposals add to the significance and delight of this historic birthday.

Just found your blog/site and I have to say I love your recipes and spirit.
I followed a link from the Precision Nutrition program I am following these days as I need some options that are nutritious (loaded with vegetables), healthy (right fats, right carbs) and tasty.
I plan on trying the paleo lasagna and this dressing. If you have any favorites or a place to find them let me know.
Thanks for doing this BTW. Great that you’re sharing and all the best!
OH MY GOLL! I want this so badly right now. This looks incredible. 🙂 I think I’d throw in miso in addition to everything else. (Love sodium, much?)
You are definitely a goddess! Though I’m really not sure what the term tongue-gripping means 🙂
I can’t wait to make this. It sounds delicious!
Thanks, Ali! I hope you do try it and let me know how you like it! It’s definitely one of my favorite sides.
Whohoo! Cool to see a post from you again. I’m glad to see you back. I love how you talk about food–and about yourself.
love

This sounds great! But I ask you, and not critically, just an honest question to be posed to all fitness bloggers….why should a goddess feel guilty about eating *any* food? As women, it seems we are taught that eating is somehow a moral issue and its just not! If one is eating what their body truly asks for (even if it is high, high, high in fat and calories!) then I think its okay!
just a thought.
