Notes

Dietary Modifications
This dressing is vegan, vegetarian and dairy free!  The creaminess comes from the tahini which is just a butter made from sesame seeds!
This dressing is gluten free and contains no wheat products.
Lemon tahini dressing is also nut free, as it's made from sesame seeds and not nuts.
To make this dressing oil free, substitute out the olive oil for water... the texture should work just fine.
This dressing is also refined sugar free, as the sweetness comes naturally from agave!
