Recipe of the Week: Amazing Cauliflower Orange Dressing

I thought I'd post this week's recipe of choice early since I'm getting ready to head out of town for a little while.

Manu came up with a fantastic dressing over the weekend; my and Don's new favorite. Manu has whipped up 3 batches in 4 days which says it all... We would have never guessed there was cauliflower in there in a million years! A must try!


Amazing Cauliflower Orange Dressing

Yields about 1 1/2 cups

1/2 cup cauliflower
1/2 cup + 1 tbs lightly flavored oil such as sunflower oil
1 tbs raw sesame oil
Juice of 3 small oranges (or 1/2 cup)
1/4 tsp fresh garlic
1/2 tsp green onion (white part)
1/4 tsp paprika
2 tsp raw tahini
2 tsp agave nectar
1/2 tbs lemon juice
Salt to taste

Blend in high speed blender until smooth.

Enjoy!

  4. You should know that most grapeseed is chemically extracted with hexane, a solvent you don't want to be ingesting. Try olive oil is you want something that is truely raw or organic sunflower oil. I don't think there is such a thing as raw sesame oil.
