VEGAN CAESAR SALAD

Vegan Caesar Salad

This Vegan Caesar Salad is delicious! The Caesar Salad dressing is made with raw cashews to make it creamy along with lemon juice, Dijon, garlic and capers. For a fun twist on a Caesar salad, it’s made with grilled Romaine. The texture of grilled lettuce is wonderful, but you can also skip that step if you prefer.

  • 2 slices gluten-free bread 2 oz total*

  • Extra-virgin olive oil spray
  • 3 heads romaine lettuce
  • 2 radishes sliced paper-thin
  • 2 tablespoons chopped chives
  • 2 teaspoons capers drained

For the Vegan Caesar Dressing

  • ½ cup raw cashews
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons capers drained
  • ½ cup water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Rub the bread slices with the cut side of the garlic clove and slice the bread into cubes.
  • Spritz the bread cubes with olive oil and bake until crispy, 10 to 15 minutes.

  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to high.
  • Slice the romaine heads in half lengthwise, then drizzle with a bit of olive oil and pinches of salt and pepper.

  • Assemble the salads with the grilled romaine and a drizzle of the dressing.
  • Top with the radishes, chives, capers, and croutons.
  • Sprinkle with the hemp seeds, microgreens, and red pepper flakes, if using.
  • Serve with the lemon wedges and the remaining dressing on the side.
