I am in love with the flavor of black sesame seeds. I put them on top of my snacks, like sliced apples and bananas with almond butter, because they give this smoothie a rich tahini flavor.

This is my version of their dressing. It’s creamy and a touch sweet from the honey. I especially love the tangy pop from the sherry vinegar.
