Cheesy Caesar Dressing
This Cheesy Caesar Dressing Recipe is vegan. You can make this creamy, delicious (and very authentic-tasting) Caesar dressing as is, or add nutritional yeast for a cheesy twist. Similarly, you can also reduce the milk and use it as a dip or sandwich spread. It's sure to be your family's next favorite dressing.
Cheesy Caesar Dressing uses 10 ingredients and takes 10 minutes to make.

Prep: 10 minutes + Cook: 0 = Total 10 minutes
Ingredients
Directions
Combine the cashews, 1 tablespoon of the nutritional yeast (if using), the chia, salt, kelp granules, capers, garlic, pepper, milk, lemon juice, and maple syrup in a blender, and purée until very smooth. Add more nutritional yeast for a cheesier flavor if you like, and add extra salt, pepper and/or garlic if desired.
Serve tossed into romaine lettuce, along with your choice of croutons, if desired.
Refrigerate for up to 4 days. This oil-free dressing will thicken after refrigeration. You can thin it by stirring in 2 to 3 teaspoons of plant milk or water, if desired.
Kelp: If you have trouble finding kelp granules, the dressing is still delicious without them!
Milk: I prefer unsweetened, unflavored almond milk or soy milk in this recipe, but you can choose another plant milk if you prefer.
