Using beans A WHOLE FOOD, in a dressing, is ABSOLUTE next level, I am so impressed with this, we need to rewrite the curricula and teach kids what to eat at a young age to STAY safe, this way is part of prevention, recipes like this are NO JOKE, take it from a health practitioner, this channel is worthy of great praise. I'M always impressed with every recipe here, but sometimes I should come in and give some due recognition, well done!

I Tried the dressing as a vegan cheese(with vegan cheese ingredients yeast etc), WORKS JUST AS WELL, I even made a Legume "Tofu" and used the dressing as a flavouring, what a versatile recipe!
