Orange Tahini Asian Dressing

I love the addition of oranges in my salad. When I made this dressing, it delivered the orange flavour as well as a creamy Caesar dressing consistency. It's a great dressing or dip for anything you're enjoying!

Yield: 1 serving
You will need:
-1 large peeled orange (or 2 small ones)
-1 1/2 cup chopped zucchini (peeled)
-2 stalks celery
-2 tablespoons tahini
-1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (or lemon)
-1/2 teaspoon liquid amino soy sauce
-1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Directions:
Blend all the ingredients together until smooth and store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Mmmm... My house smells like heaven! Made some homemade Oaties, which were inspired by Jamba Juice. When I was down in Maui, I saw these little gems in Jamba Juice and was curious to see what we're the ingredients. I looked them up online and then was determined to make a healthier version as soon as I got back to Calgary. Such a delicious treat in the go and you can add whatever you like to them! Enjoy! Yield: 1 dozen cookies You will need: -2 mashed ripe bananas -1/2 cup apple sauce -A dash of cinnamon, nutmeg and ground ginger -2 teaspoons baking soda -1 cup oat flour -1 cup oats -3/4 cup dried apricots -3/4 cup dried mulberries -1/2 cup dried cranberries -1/4 cup dark chocolate shavings (or chips) Directions: 1. Preheat the oven to 350F 2. Mix all the ingredients together and place spoonfuls on a lined baking sheet 3. Bake for 15 minutes (or until edges just start to brown lightly). Voila! You've got Oaties!
