    Think sesame seeds are only destined for a life on bagels? Think again. When you grind ’em up, these tiny wonders magically transform into a thick, nutrient-packed spread called tahini. You’ve likely already seen it in hummus, and maybe even in salad dressings. But today, we’re talking smoothies. Because what most people don’t realize is that tahini also happens to lend to an irresistible creaminess to your favourite fruit and veggie blends.
