Cashew Caesar dressing


You will need
1/2 cup cashews, soaked and drained
1/3 cup plain almond milk (unsweetened)
1.5 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tsp chia seeds
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp capers
3 medium glove garlic
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp maple syrup

Method
Using a blender, combine the cashews, nutritional yeast, chia, salt, capers, garlic, milk, lemon juice and maple syrup and puree until very smooth. If you like more cheesier flavor, add more nutritional yeast.
Serve tossed into romaine lettuce and croutons (I used Baked polenta croutons). If you prefer more strong dressing, add more capers, garlic or black pepper. You can use any non dairy milk - I prefer plain almond milk.
