Homemade dressings are easy to make and healthier than the store bough kind, just like this Maple Tahini Dressing. Making your own dressing gives you the opportunity to blend the flavours to your taste, and it is super easy too. It can also be served as a green goddess dip served with some vegetables sticks just like this Lemon Dill Hummus.
This dressing loaded with bold flavours. It is a little tangy from the lemon juice and yoghurt. It also has a lovely freshness from the herbs that pack a lot of flavor in this dressing.
