Seaweed (wakame) colorful confetti salad with sweet black sesame dressing

Dressings
recipe

Seaweed (Wakame) is an excellent source of magnesium, iodine, calcium, iron, Vitamins (A, C, D, E, K, B2), folate, and lignans, which helps not only support our bodies and aids in preventing certain types of cancers, particularly breast cancer. Having a busy lifestyle of my full-time work and teaching yoga has made wakame and seaweed, in general, one of my go-to ingredients from my pantry because all I need to do is rehydrate with water and in about 10 minutes VOILA! Add them to soups, make miso soup, or drain and mix in salads. You can find dried seaweed in any Japanese supermarket (IE Mitsuwa, Nijiya), and possibly your local supermarket as I have been seeing more and more Asian ingredients become more readily available to the public. The dressing was inspired by a black sesame dressing I had at a local vegan restaurant in my neighborhood. Had to replicate the flavors, and it was too addicting not to share! Can't find black sesame powder or the seeds? No problem, use regular tahini or any other nut/seed butter as you see fit :) I hope you all try this recipe out for yourselves!
