Salad with Chicken and Tahini Dressing

TAHINI DRESSING

2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
¼ cup canola or safflower oil
2 tablespoons Tamari soy sauce (wheat-free)
3 tablespoons all-natural tahini (sesame paste)
1 medium clove garlic (or more, to taste)
1 teaspoon honey
2 tablespoons (approximately) Spring water, as needed

Whisk together all of the above ingredients except the Spring water; add the water at the end, as needed, to reach the desired consistency. Correct the seasoning and pour over salad.

Make a salad for 3 people using fresh mixed greens, tomato, cucumber, carrot, avocado, or any vegetable you like. Divide salad between 3 large serving plates. Top each salad with 1 ½ cups chopped cooked chicken breast. Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salads. Sprinkle with some fresh ground pepper and serve. (Serves 3 people)

TIP: This dressing is also good served with falafel.
