Raw Vegan Hemp Seed Nori Dressing




I was in the kitchen trying to figure out a salad dressing that incorporated hemp seeds.

 

I came up with this one and it is a hit!

 

 The nori gives it an amazing flavor- so savory!


I hope you try it out and enjoy.

 

 

 +Stay tuned until the end of this post for an amazing video!

 

 









Dressing ingredients:


-1 cup water
-1 cup raw hemp seeds
-1 small zucchini
-1/2 teaspoon cayenne
-1 nori sheet
-2 pitted dates

Salad ingredients: 

-spinach
-kale
-zucchini
-carrots
-bell peppers (any colors will do)



*A little tid bit about the beauty and health of hemp seeds:

Hemp Seeds: Are a complete protein. They contain the essential fatty acids omega 6 and 3 and are a good source of soluble and insoluble fiber. They are a great source of vitamins A, B1, B2, D, and E.




1 cup water


1 cup raw hemp seeds

Two pitted dates

Add above ingredients into vitamix. Blend!

Then add cayenne, zucchini, and the nori. Blend again.

It should come out looking like this.

This would also be wonderful as a dip for vegetables! Yum!



 Now for the salad:

*chop up the amount of kale you desire for your salad into fine pieces and combine in a bowl with chopped spinach*




Place the dressing on top and stir!




I used these little red bell peppers. How cute! ...And tasty :)

Chop up a small zucchini into very little pieces.

Combine everything in a bowl and it's time to eat!




 
If you have bowls with air tight lids you can place the salad and dressing in a bowl and take with you to work, school, etc.!
