Chef Tips:
- You can make the dressing in a larger batch and keep it covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- If you cannot find fresh fruit, frozen fruit can work if it is thawed overnight and patted dry.
- Pepitas may be processed in a shared facility with peanut or tree nut products. If food allergies are a concern, double-check the labeling for information.
