Yields
2T = 1 serving of dressing
Ingredients
1/4 cup organic pumpkin puree (canned)
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup unfiltered apple cider vinegar
1 T honey or pure maple syrup
2 cloves garlic minced
2T “nooch” nutritional yeast*
1 tsp turmeric
½ tsp salt (any salt that you prefer)
½ tsp black pepper (to activate turmeric)
Directions
In a hurry? Grab a whisk and mix ingredients. Store dressing in an airtight container for up to a week.
If you have 2 extra minutes, in a highspeed blender, combine all ingredients and mix. Optional here to add in 1-2T pumpkin seeds to add in more interesting texture.
*no nooch? No problem! First, add it to your list for the grocery store. Then, swap in ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon as a sweet alternative for this dressing.
