I’ve tried many plant-based Caesar salad dressing recipes, and have worked diligently to make a version that is more nutrient rich, less sodium, and still delicious. I think I did it! Try this one and see what you think. Five ingredients plus water and it’s a “slam dunk” tasty dressing.

Ingredients
- 2/3 cup raw almonds
- 1 tablespoon 50% less sodium tamari
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard or salt free Westbrae mustard
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 cup water
Directions
Place all of the ingredients in a blender and process until very creamy. You don’t want to see any flecks of almonds. Refrigerate for up to 3 days. Thin with a couple of teaspoons of water if it gets too thick, but not too much or it will dilute the delicious flavor.

There are lots of ways to use the sauce as a base:
- Pour on a salad, or serve it as a dip for crudité, mix with cooked chickpeas, or use it as a sauce for a vegetable wrap. The uses are endless.
- Change it up:
- Southwestern style: Add chipotle in adobo sauce, lime juice, and cilantro for a yummy smoky taste.
- Indian style: add in curry powder
Go wild with your imagination with this Caesar sauce as a base, and reward yourself with many delicious recipes.
