Ingredients

Scale

Cashew Base Caesar Dressing

  • 1/3 cup cashews, soaked overnight or for 15 minutes in just boiled water
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil or avocado oil
  • 34 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced (around 3 tbsp)
  • 1 heaping tsp dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp pink salt
  • black pepper, to taste

Avocado Oil Mayo Base Caesar Dressing

  • 1/2 cup avocado oil mayo (I like this one)
  • 34 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced (around 3 tbsp)
  • 1 heaping tsp dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp pink salt
  • black pepper, to taste

Salad

  • 1 bunch of freshly washed romaine
  • nutritional yeast or parmesan (if not Whole-30 or dairy-free) to serve
  • bacon or coconut bacon (optional)
  • croutons or roasted chickpeas (optional)
  • fresh lemon juice
  • pink salt & black pepper

Instructions

Cashew Base Caesar Dressing

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a powerful blender & blend until smooth & creamy.
  2. Depending on your blender you may have to scrape the sides as you go.
  3. Pour over your prepared salad & enjoy!

Avocado Oil Mayo Base Caesar Dressing

  1. In a medium sized mixing bowl add all of the ingredients & mix until it is all well combined.
  2. Pour over your prepared salad & enjoy! 

Notes

*Both of these are best served the day after preparing them, from my experience as it gives the flavours a chance to get well incorporated. However, we always eat it the day of & it’s incredible!
