Method
1. Blend all the dressing ingredients, except the olive oil, together in a blender.
2. Slowly add the olive oil to the blender while it’s on low to help it emulsify (thicken).
3. Create your own rainbow bowl however you like (use the formula above, or get creative), drizzle the dressing on top, and sprinkle with seeds. Enjoy and feel reinvigorated!
