Vegan Caesar Dressing Recipe

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 8 (2 tbsp each)
Calories: 45

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup raw cashews
  • 1/3 cup water, plus more as needed
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp capers, drained
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds until completely smooth.
  2. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon juice. Thin with extra water 1 tbsp at a time if needed.
  3. Pour over salad, toss well, and finish with black pepper and a sprinkle of nutritional yeast.

Notes

For the smoothest texture, use a high-speed blender. If you're out of capers, 1 tbsp of caper brine works just as well. The dressing thickens in the fridge, so add a splash of water or lemon juice when using leftovers.
