Chef's Notes

Substitutions
Use unsweetened cranberry juice in place of pomegranate juice.

Nut-free
Use sunflower seeds in place of walnuts.

Use tahini in place of walnuts but start with 2 tablespoons of tahini, taste and adjust to your flavor and texture preferences.

How to enjoy
Use on top of salads and grain bowls.

Marinate tofu or tempeh in the dressing before baking or grilling.

Pour over steamed vegetables.

Use as a veggie dip.
