EAT MORE GREENS. And roots. And veggies that are really fruits…. We’re all about helping you eat more things that grow from the ground!
Here’s what every veggie-loving, skin-be-a-glowing gal knows: the key to eating more veggies on a consistent basis has everything to do with making incredible sauces that’ll keep you hooked.
We’re obsessed with lemon tahini sauce (try it on almost anything!) – and miso dressing over veggies of every shape and size will have you craving more greens than you ever imagined. Take your greens from a chore to a craving: try tahini lemon dressing on even the most bitter veggie and you’ll learn why people legitimately enjoy eating this stuff.
Here are three dressings we love to make at home, each pulled from a popular TCM recipe. Each makes a killer combo with a grain bowl filled with veggies or as a dressing for roasted, raw, or steamed veggies.
