Creamy White Bean Tahini Sauce

Vegan


This silky, flavorful sauce doubles as a hearty dip or dressing—and it’s made with pantry staples. Great on warm grain bowls, tossed into salads, or as a dip for veggies and pita. Also it’s vegan and provides extra proteins with the beans.

  • Garlic powder to taste

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor.
