This tomato tamari dressing is a must-try for anyone looking for a healthier salad dressing option. The combination of chopped tomatoes, tamari, and honey give it a unique flavor that pairs well with any salad or vegetable dish. Tamari, also known as Japanese soy sauce, is a healthier alternative to traditional soy sauce because it's made with little to no wheat and contains less sodium. This dressing is easy to make and can be stored in the fridge for up to a week for convenient use in meal prep or quick salads.

Instructions

1.	In a blender, mix together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, and cider vinegar until well combined.
2.	With the blender still running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture thickens.
3.	Add the chopped tomatoes, tamari, honey, and black pepper to the blender and blend until smooth.
4.	Season to taste with salt and pepper if needed.
5.	Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
