Garlic Dill Salad Dressing/Dip

I just invented this dressing at lunch. It's delish. The measurements are approximate since I just winged it to taste. It comes out quite thick, so would work well for a dip as well.

Home made salad dressings are always WAY better than store bought, and take almost no time to whip up. This one makes about 1/2 cup.

1 tbsp honey/agave
2-3 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp avacado oil (avacado oil is expensive but delicious. You could also use olive or whatever you have).
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
3 tsp dijon mustard
2-3 tsp nutritional yeast 
1 tsp dried dill
2 tsp dried parsley
1 clove fresh garlic
pinch of salt

Put all ingredients in a bullet blender (I used a mason jar attached to my Oster blender base - if you have an Oster - this works well). You can also chop the garlic finely and shake all contents in a jar until mixed.

I used this to dress a salad made of things I had in the house: spinach, romaine, onion sprouts, shredded carrot, chopped brown mushrooms, chopped celery, canned chick peas.

Susan's Killer Guac

My mum made *great* guacamole, and she'd always make home-fried corn chips to go with it. She may have grown up on a rather WASPy meat-and-potatoes diet, but she loved spicy food from the moment she tried it, and she could put damn fine Mexican and Indian meals on the table.

I love using this Guac as a condiment on almost anything, or as an appetizer/snack with chips or veggies. Um, or a spoon.

• 2-3 ripe avacados (2 if you're using a small tomato, three if you're using a medium to large one)
• 1/2 to a full small onion (I use half - I don't like it as oniony - my mum used a full)
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tomato
• 4 garlic cloves
• 1 scant TBSP chili powder
• a dash of hot sauce, or, alternatively, I sometimes use about 1/8-1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

For chunky guac, mash the acacados in a bowl, and then chop everything else finely and mix it in with the avacados. (I like this best for chips).
For smooth guac (better as a condiment), chuck everything in a blender or food processor and let it get mangled up till it's smooth and creamy.

Thanks, mum.
