Vegan Caesar Salad Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the mustard, nutritional yeast, almonds, and garlic. Make a paste.
• *Whisk in the water, lemon juice, soy sauce, olive oil and white pepper.
• *I prefer to blend the ingredients together in a mini-blender or using a hand-held immersion blender for a creamier consistency.
• Refrigerate until ready to serve. Adjust seasonings if necessary.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. On a medium baking sheet, toss the bread with 2 tablespoons olive oil; season generously with salt and pepper. On a second baking sheet, toss the chickpeas with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Bake both until chickpeas and croutons are browned and crisp, stirring both halfway through, about 10 minutes for the croutons and 20 minutes for the chickpeas. Set aside.
• While the chickpeas and croutons roast, prepare your dressing: To a high-speed blender, add all the dressing ingredients, plus 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 3/4 cup water; blend until completely smooth, 3 to 4 minutes, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula every now and again. Set dressing aside. (You should have 1 1/2 cups).
• In a large bowl, add the kale and the dressing. Using your hands, massage the kale until slightly softened. Add the lettuce, croutons and half the roasted chickpeas; toss to coat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with additional nutritional yeast. Top with remaining roasted chickpeas; grind black pepper over, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine vegan mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic, water, lemon juice, olive oil, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper in a jar with a lid.
• Shake, shake, shake!
• Enjoy!
