Vegan Caesar Salad Dressing Recipe
A Caesar salad is an absolute classic, and there is no need to miss out if you’re vegan. This vegan Caesar salad dressing is delicious, and it recreates that classic flavour using Plenish Cashew Milk, cornichons and cashew nuts. The original Caesar salad gets its name from Italian chef Caesar Cardini, and apparently, he made it from the remaining ingredients he had lying around. This vegan Caesar salad dressing is super simple to make, and you’ll probably have most of the ingredients to hand too.
