Tahini Potato Salad

What you need: 

4-5 large-medium potatoes
3 tablespoons tahini
2 tablespoons agave syrup
2 teaspoons wholegrain mustard
2-3 lemons, juiced
1 (15 ounce) can four-bean mix or chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 large avocado, diced
salt and pepper, to taste

What you do: 

1. Gently boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and rinse in cold water to take the heat off.
2. Whisk together the tahini, agave, mustard and lemon juice to make the dressing. If it is still too thick, add more lemon juice, or a little water. Aim for the consistency of hummus.
3. Cut the potatoes into quarters or eighths, depending on size. Mix potatoes, beans, and avocado gently with the dressing. Season to taste, and serve at room temperature.
Source of recipe: It came from mah brain, as an alternative to yucky mayo-dressed salads.

Cause if you don't watch it, the software will post recipes wherever it takes a mind to. It's happened to me. I always recheck the category before I hit "post" because of that.


This looks VERY yummy...but why is it posted under soups?  ???



I MUST make this a.s.a.p.

Questions about quantities: How many cups of beans are used? How much lemon juice (in teaspoons, whatever) did You get from Your lemons? ...I once made a salad that was overpoweringly lime-flavoured because my "1-2 limes" yielded more than twice the amount of juice needed...

I grew up on "mayo"-dressed tater salads, and I'll always have a soft spot for Vegannaise... but I have a feeling that this salad will be cheaper, healthier, and probably even tastier!
