Carrot Ginger Dressing

I could drink this dressing like a smoothie. No, really. This is the essence of fresh. It has the perfect combination of tang and sweet, and some days I pour some into a cup and dip cruciferous veggies into it in lieu of slathering over leafy greens.

Like with all of my dressing recipes, there is some wiggle room — like how much carrot you shred or how generous you are with your ginger or if you actually measure your onion or not.

I confess I rarely measure my carrots out, I just go for it. Some days it is more carrot-y and others less so.
