A vibrant and nutritious dressing featuring fresh zucchini, citrus juices, and turmeric. This creamy plant-based dressing combines the earthiness of zucchini with bright citrus notes and a golden hue from fresh turmeric.
Ingredients
- •1 medium zucchini
- •1 piece scallion
- •3 Tbsp lime juice
- •3 Tbsp olive oil
- •½ tsp sea salt
- •1 recipe Zucchini Dressing
- •1 piece fresh turmeric
- •2 Tbsp orange juice
- •2 Tbsp cashew butter
- •2 tsp nutritional yeast
- •1 slice garlic clove
Cooking Instructions
- 1.
Combine the zucchini, scallion, lime juice, oil, and salt in an upright blender (see Note) and blend until smooth, starting on a lower speed and gradually increasing it as the dressing comes together. Use a rubber spatula (with the blender off) to help move the ingredients around as necessary, or use the tamper stick if using a high-powered blender. Adjust the seasoning to taste-some variations with lots of extra herbs will need more salt. Scrape down the sides and blend again. Use immediately, or store in a glass jar in the fridge for up to 3 days. Shake well before using. The dressing will thicken once chilled; thin it out with a little water if needed.
