VEGAN CAESAR SALAD

I got this recipe from the ever-so-inspirational Mimi Kirk (and ya'll better be taking some advice from someone who looks at least 20 years younger than she is - and without resorting to plastic surgery!). It's everyone's new fav around here (I've made this salad weekly since finding this recipe) and sonny boy eats an entire bowl happily, every time I make it. Don't skip the cashew, aka parm cheese, it pulls it all together beautifully!


Caesar Salad (serves 2)

2 cloves garlic (pressed)
capers (about two garlic presses full, or approx. 1 heaping tsp.)
1/2 tsp. mustard
lemon (to taste, about1/2 very juicy lemon)
dash tamari
olive oil (slowly pour in and mix until emulsified
salt
pepper
romaine lettuce (be sure get all the water out after rinsing. best if chilled for a few hours)

cashew parmesan "cheese" to sprinkle on top
1/2 c. raw, unsalted cashews
pinch salt
approx 1 tbsp. nutritional yeast
dash garlic powder

food processed all together (you'll have left overs:)



my little boy doesn't dig salads but he ate all of his up in less than 3min.! it's a winner!
