Sweet and Spicy Curry Dressing (for Spinach Salad)

By Hklbrries

"The dressing is perfectly suited for a spinach salad with fresh fruits like berries, apple, pear and grapes. I also like to add spiced walnuts."

Ingredients

• 1 cup walnuts (soaked at least 6 hours)
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 1/4 cup dates, agave or honey
• 1 tbsp curry powder
• Cayenne pepper powder, to taste
• Water, as needed

Preparation

Step 1

If using dates, soak in just enough water to cover for 1/2 hour. This step is not necessary but will help the dates blend in better. Strain and rinse the walnuts. Place dates with their soak water in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth, adding water as needed for desired consistency. Add more or less cayenne depending on your personal tastes.
