Kale Salad with Tahini Dressing
This vegan salad dressing is creamy, salty, and so satisfying! Tahini brings a nuttiness to this dressing that is balanced with the salty and savoriness of the capers and miso. The salad dressing will keep for about a week in the fridge, so give it a try and have delicious salads for the rest of the week.
