I usually mix up an avocado dressing for my salad, but tonight I was craving, strangely, tahini. So, I mixed some tahini with a little lemon juice, some olive oil, dried dill, water for thinning, and a clove of fresh garlic (I use a garlic press). I love fresh garlic (and its benefits!), and thought it would be nice to give my system a boost by eating some raw. The result was a really strong dressing. So much so that my mouth was burning towards the end. Not a dressing for everyone, but for me, it hit the spot.
For dessert, I made a protein shake separate from my daughters, so I could use up all of the remaining pineapple in the house. I'm not sure how it didn't occur to make my all-time favorite cocktail before - a Pina Colada!
Blend the following:
1 1/2 cups pineapple
1/2 cup rice milk
1 TB coconut milk
1 cup ice
When I was done, I kind of wished I hadn't used all the pineapple. This makes a perfect end of day treat. Strawberries or orange juice would be a nice addition too.
