Notes

Omit the Parmesan to make this recipe dairy-free.
Add flaked grilled salmon or chopped grilled chicken when dressing the kale for a delicious protein boost! 
Store the remaining Lemon Tahini Dressing in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 7-10 days.
If Lemon Tahini Dressing is too thick add 1 tbsp water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
