A few simple ingredients bring this Greek-inspired sauce together. It is quick, delicious, and sides perfectly with grilled veggies, pita bread, charred chicken, or as a salad dressing. If you’ve been looking for a vegan dressing, then you’ve found it! Not only that, but it is also a keto-friendly dressing! Pair it with your next Greek-inspired meal and you will not be disappointed.

Top Tips
I like to make the tahini sauce at least 30 minutes before eating so that the ingredients have time to marinate together. Tahini has a texture that mimics peanut butter, but has a rougher end result. Add milk to dull down this consistency.
