Creamy Lemon-Tahini Dressing | Oil-Free

This Creamy Lemon-Tahini Dressing is so lemony and full of flavor, and it is oil-free! With the added garlic and Dijon mustard it has a real zing to it. It pairs well with a nice salad or wrap. So creamy, plant-based and made with any mayonnaise. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
