This extraordinarily creamy dressing is a nutrition powerhouse that is loaded with fiber and healthy fat!
 
It can be used for a wide variety of dishes like a taco salad (pictured above) egg or tuna salad (pictured below), coleslaw, spread for any sandwich or quesadilla, topped on a burger patty (pictured below) or scrambled eggs, or used to dip your favorite veggies.   
 
 
For those with food allergies or sensitivities, this dressing is free of soy, dairy and gluten.
