Chrismas is just around the corner with lots of festivities, sparkle, happy people and tasty food. We gather together with family and friends to share those special magical moments of the winter.
And so I thought I share with you a super tasty and nutritious salad which gets ready super fast. A treat to share with loved ones!

Ingredients:

1 kg boiled potatoes
1 can of boiled chickpeas
1 big red bell pepper
1 red or white onion
1 big carrot
1/2 bunch of parsley or cilantro
1/2-1 head of lettuce

For the dressing:

3-4 tbls tahini
3-4 tbls fresh lemon juice
1 tbls raw honey
3-4 tbls water
paprika and salt to taste

Peel and cut into big cubes the boiled potatoes. You can leave them even whole if they are small. Shred the carrots. Cut the pepper, onion and parsley and mix everything together. I like to tear my lettuce in big pieces and add it last.

For the dressing just mix all the ingredients and stir until well combined. I first add only the lemon juice until it becomes very thick paste and then gradually add the water until fluffy and creamy. If you don't want to add honey but still want this sweetness you can substitute the lemon with orange juice. For extra twist you can add 1 tbls of soy sauce to the dressing.

Enjoy and happy holidays dear friends! 🙌❤
