Creamy Caesar Dressing (Dairy-Free)

Ingredients

• 1 garlic clove
• 1/2 cup dairy-free mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 tbsp capers, finely chopped
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• water to thin as needed

Method

1. 1

   Place the garlic clove on a cutting board, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, and mash it repeatedly with the flat side of a knife until it forms a smooth paste — mashing it this way, rather than mincing it into small pieces, is what distributes the garlic flavor evenly throughout the dressing instead of leaving sharp, overpowering bites in random spots.

2. 2

   Whisk the garlic paste, dairy-free mayonnaise, lemon juice, chopped capers, Dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, and black pepper together until smooth.

3. 3

   Thin with a tablespoon of water at a time if a pourable consistency is desired.

4. 4

   Taste and adjust salt as needed.

5. 5

   Store in an airtight container in the fridge up to 5 days.
