Cava Copycat Lemon Herb Tahini Sauce Recipe

tahini

🥗Healthier: sunflower seed butter

💰Cheaper: peanut butter

Sunflower seed butter is nut-free and offers a similar creamy texture.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is more affordable while maintaining a neutral flavor.

In the bowl of a mini food processor, add garlic, parsley, basil, cilantro, salt, lemon juice, and lemon zest.

Pulse until roughly chopped. Scrape the sides of the processor a few times while pulsing.

Add olive oil and tahini paste and pulse until well combined.

Now add 2 tablespoons of cold water and blend for a minute until the sauce becomes creamy.

Add more water, if you’d like a thinner sauce.

Check for salt and add more if needed.
