Our family loves Caesar Salads! Our youngest child’s favorite meal was a Caesar Salad with a side of asparagus and strawberries. When we started to adapt the GFCF diet we missed this meal. I messed around a lot with a variety of ingredients until I found this combination and found it to be a nice substitute for Caesar Dressing!
2 teaspoon Minced Garlic
1 teaspoon Sea Salt
1 teaspoon Fresh Cracked Black Pepper
½ Lemon juiced
1/4 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
3 Tablespoon Vegenaise*
1 teaspoon Tamari Sauce (don’t use soy, it contains wheat)
1/2 teaspoon Kelp Granules
1/3 cup Cold Pressed Olive Oil
Mix all ingredients together, except olive oil. Once you have a smooth blend, slowly whisk in the olive oil. Store dressing in a air-tight container for a couple of days in the refrigerator. If you want the dressing thicker sprinkle xantham gum in and stir.... Remember a little goes along way, so add it slowly.
*We have found Vegenaise to be useful in many of our recipes. We have substituted this ingredient in recipes that call for mayo, sour cream, and even small amounts of cream cheese. This is a very versatile food; add 1 cup to your favorite cake batter and you will experience a fabulously moist cake.
