Creamy Apple Cider Vinegar & Basil Dressing
This Creamy Apple Cider Vinegar & Basil Dressing will make any of your fresh green salads burst with flavour.
If you're looking for a really tasty homemade salad dressing, then this one is the one for you.
This recipe one has a special place in my heart because it's always been my go-to! It never fails to make any salad super tasty. It's a classic oil & vinegar blend but with an addition of a couple fun ingredients: dried basil and tahini.
The tahini (sesame seed paste/butter) is optional, but I highly recommend it. It gives this dressing an extra nutty flavour and creamy consistency that's too good to pass up. Plus, there's some great reasons to add more sesame seeds into your diet. They're:
a great source of calcium
a great source of other heart-healthy minerals such as copper, magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc
