Chili Almond Dressing
This Chili Almond Dressing combines creamy almond butter with fresh lemon juice, a hint of tamari, ginger, garlic, and a touch of chili for a balanced, slightly spicy sauce. A touch of sweetness from Medjool date rounds out the flavors, and water thins the dressing to a pourable consistency. The result is a rich, tangy, and mildly spicy dressing that enhances salads and bowls with a smooth texture and warming heat.
