Tahini Caesar Salad

I saw this recipe on Half Baked Harvest, and had to recreate it as caesar salads will always be my favorite! What I like about this dressing is that it’s fairly light, and it does not include any cream or heavy dairy products (only a little parm!).

Ingredients

• 1 head of broccoli
• 3-4 large handfuls kale
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1 lemon
• 2 tablespoons tahini
• 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
• 2 garlic cloves, grated
• 1/4 cup grates parmesan
• salt + pepper
• red pepper flakes

Instructions

• Chop the broccoli into bite size pieces (I discarded the stems, and cute the florets in half, for reference)
• Add the chopped broccoli and kale to a salad bowl
• In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk the olive oil, lemon, tahini, mustard, garlic, parmesan, salt + pepper, red pepper flakes until well blended
• Pour the dressing over the broccoli and kale, and combine
