Green Goddess Salad Dressing
I've been playing with a new salad dressing that is quickly becoming my new favorite. It is based on the Green Goddess recipe in the cookbook Veganomicon. I've expanded on it to include way more vegetable content.
It is creamy and tangy with cilantro and some fresh garlic. The recipe is easy to make in a high speed blender.
Here's my recipe:
Susan's Green Goddess Salad Dressing
Yield: 6 generous servings
1 medium zucchini, chopped coarsely (5 5/8 oz weight)
1/2 cup water
4 whole green onions, trimmed and coarsely chopped (white and green parts)
4 green onions, white and light green part only, coarsely chopped (all green onions together weighed 2 5/8 oz)
1 cup flat leafed parsley, including non-woody stems (1 oz weight)
1 cup cilantro, including non-woody stems (1 oz weight)
3 cloves fresh garlic
1 TBSP lower sodium miso
3 TBSP raw tahini
3 TBSP fresh meyer lemon juice (use less if using other lemons)
1/3 cup nutritional yeast
Add ingredients in order listed to container of high speed blender. Blend on high until smooth.
It thickens a bit after blending so adding some water to thin leftovers is probably good idea.
