Ooo Tahini sounds yummyy. I love the japanese sesame seed dressings but it doesn't look healthy :P. I will go look for Tahini next time. Hummus is the other thing I would like to try too. I have read that it is a healthy spread. I am also trying to start planking :) Do you know of any good videos to teach the right technique to plank? How do I tell that I am planking right? Am afraid to get injured if I do it wrongly.

I'm sure you could recreate that sesame dressing at home so you still get that delicious flavor but have a better idea of what you are putting in it to make it healthier! :) Hummus is so delicious--definitely one of my favorite things! You can keep it simple and traditional, or use any kind of bean or lentil to switch it up or add so many different herbs and spices to make it slightly different every time if you like variety.
I actually did a plank challenge a while back, so here is the link to the first day where I have a video and some tips for a basic plank: https://steemit.com/contest/@plantstoplanks/plank-challenge-week-1-day-1-basic-plank There are a lot of ways to modify when you are starting out if even doing a plank on the floor like the one I show is too hard. You can have your arms up on a bench or solid table to start out elevated to make it easier. Also just starting out with 10-20 seconds is a great way to ease into it. As long as you have a stable surface you shouldn't be at risk. It's a really great exercise if you do it correctly as it will work all of your core muscles and help them function in the way that they are supposed to to stabilize your spine and hips. Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be happy to help!
