Ingredients

For the Blueberry Tahini Dressing:

• ½ cup (75 grams) blueberries
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons tahini
• Sea salt, to taste

For the Blueberry-Spinach Salad:

• 4 cups (120 grams) baby spinach
• ½ cup (50 grams) cucumbers, sliced
• ½ cup (80 grams) canned low-sodium chickpeas, rinsed (certified gluten-free if necessary)
• ¼ cup (20 grams) red cabbage, shredded
• ¼ cup (40 grams) blueberries
• 2 tablespoons chopped red onion
• ½ avocado (70 grams), chopped
• 2 tablespoons golden raisins
• 2 tablespoons roasted and salted sunflower seeds

Directions

1. Place all ingredients for the dressing into a blender and blend until creamy and smooth. The dressing should be thick, but if the texture is too thick for you add a little water. Start with 1-2 teaspoons and add more if you need to.
2. Prepare two salads by starting with a bed of baby spinach and adding the toppings in the order listed. Drizzle dressing over both salads and enjoy!
