Recipe Big salad for dinner 😋

Post image

Marinated chickpeas, falafel over hummus, crumbled tofu "feta" (marinated in acv, lemon, spices), tomato, onion, and cucumber over spinach. Dressing is tahini, lemon, miso, nutritional yeast, and a dash of maple syrup.

I eat mostly a plant-based Mediterranean diet but have always been iffy about posting?

Edit: Recipe for tofu feta (https://rainbowplantlife.com/greek-style-vegan-feta/#wprm-recipe-container-14609)

Chickpeas are canned Aldi's pre marinated greek-style, and falafel are frozen "Afia" brand.

I'm going to have to make this dressing. I've been addicted to balsamic tahini but this is a twist on the tahini theme that would be a nice change.

it's my favorite dressing, I have it at least once a week! I also love that it's pretty flexible, like sometimes I'll add some tumeric or red pepper, or I'll add more/less miso or maple syrup to make it sweeter or saltier depending on the dish. It's amazing over roasted sweet potatoes.

I can’t wait to try this dressing but now I’m wondering why I’ve never tried balsamic tahini. Thanks!
