INSTRUCTIONS
For the dressing:

Place tahini and 2 tablespoons water in a food processor. Process until whipped and smooth.
Add the yogurt, lime juice and honey and process again until smooth.
Add additional water (1-2 more tablespoons) as necessary for desired consistency. *I used about 1 tablespoon.

Using a spiralizer on blade D or a julienne peeler make noodles from the carrots and trim into manageable size for eating.
Place the carrot noodles in a large bowl.

Add the dressing and toss until well combined.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with black sesame seeds.
Serve immediately or keep chilled until serving.
