Method

Your notes

1

Gather and prepare your ingredients.

2

Place the sun-dried tomatoes, nutritional yeast, water, and red wine vinegar into a blender and blend until combined. Add water if needed to help. Stir through the tahini and olive oil and adjust seasoning to taste. Add maple syrup to sweeten, if liked.

3

Place into a bowl with all other ingredients and toss to coat. Let it sit for about 10 minutes before serving, to allow the onions to absorb the dressing and mellow out.
