A good sauce/dressing is a permanent fixture in my fridge because I use it on my delicious veggie dinner bowls, and on salads. You can elevate any veggie to the next level by creating a yummy, creamy sauce. I love my Spicy Garlic Tahini sauce because it imparts such a rich, complex, and zing-y flavor to my dinner bowl. Plus you can spice it up as much or as little as you want.

I love to use tahini, which is a paste made from ground sesame seeds. It gives your sauce a lovely nutty taste, and smooth texture. It also serves as a great base for whichever way you want to go with your sauce: Asian, Indian, or Mediterranean.
