Vegan and Oil-Free Caesar Dressing
This vegan Caesar salad dressing is soooo good! Probably my absolute favorite dressings I’ve made to this day. Mainly because it really reminds of traditional Caesar salad dressing.
It’s so simple to create. All you have to do is soak the cashews and throw the ingredients in a blender. THAT EASY!
I like to add this dressing to wraps, salads (of course), and sometimes cook with it! This time, I served the salad with a kale and romaine lettuce mix. I topped it with crispy chickpeas that I tossed in a garlic and onion herb blend seasoning and cooked them in the air fryer at 390 degrees for about 10 minutes. I also topped this salad with sliced avocados and nutritional yeast. Talk about DELICIOUS!
