Creamy Garlicky Caesar Salad Dressing
This recipe is a variation on a recipe I used to use.. now it's vegan and really delicious! You would never guess that it was vegan. I think I might try it out on some friends at our next BBQ. Homemade Vegan Parmesan - 1/2 C roasted unsalted walnuts - 1/4 C roasted unsalted cashews - 1/2 tsp garlic powder - 1/2 tsp onion powder - 1/2 tsp ground dry mustard Throw everything into a food processor and pulse until it reaches the consistency of course salt or regular grated Parmesan. Use on top of your salad as well as in the dressing if you like! It really gives the dressing the consistency of real Parmesan.
