Ingredients
¼ cup sunflower seed butter
1 tablespoon raw apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon tamari, soy sauce, or coconut aminos
3 tablespoons honey
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-inch knob of fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
¼ teaspoon salt

Directions
A creamy and flavorful dressing reminiscent of a Thai-style peanut dressing.
Combine all of the ingredients in a high-speed blender, and blend until completely smooth. Serve over your favorite salad ingredients, including sliced red pepper, shredded cabbage or romaine, fresh cilantro, and some sunflower seeds for crunch.
Store any leftover dressing in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
You may sub in almond, cashew or peanut butter depending on your preference and tolerance.
