This is Daniel's recipe for the most delicious salad, which we obviously didn't want to keep from you. The tahini makes the dressing incredibly creamy and reminds us a bit of a "healthier version" of the Caesar salad.
For an extra portion of crunch, simply add a few roasted seeds, kernels or nuts and top the salad with some fried tofu or tempeh. This version with cucumber and apple is our favorite, but tomatoes, peppers, radishes, etc. can also be added. Have fun trying it out!
