    If you're having trouble with the quality of the video try on mobile, chrome or update your current browser. I'm curious to know if you did have any issues. Sorry if you did.
    I'm not sure if you noticed but this video was filmed on a new camera! The channel had a great few months so we decided to upgrade to bring the highest quality video to you. We went from our Canon M50 to the Sony A7C. #sorrycanon Apparently I have some learning to do as it seems to have uploaded in a different format.
    Learning as I go, the only way to do it!

    I prefer a homemade dressing to anything store bought nowadays since they all seem to have too much salt and oil, and my go-to recipe is pretty similar to yours. Tahini, water, lemon juice, hummus, nooch, stone ground mustard, onion/garlic powder, paprika, etc. I don't usually add dates because I'm often too lazy to use my blender, but I've added dates before and it's awesome! That pattypan squash is picture perfect 🖼💛
