This came from a recipe in the Whole Foods store near where I live. It's lower in calories that most other low-fat caesar dressings, and it's vegan and real easy to make. They claim that if you serve this dressing just as you would a traditional Caesar dressing, they bet no one will notice the difference. Well, I'm not sure that's true but you can still try it if you want. Altered slightly to suit our taste (they recommended two cloves garlic, but I reduced that to one). Serve over romaine lettuce, and add croutons and parmesan if you are so inclined. Ingredients:
2/3 cup tofu (firm or firm silken, lite is also fine) |
1/4 cup water |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
2 tablespoons light miso |
1 tablespoon agave nectar (i substituted 1 tsp. splenda) |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (optional) |
1/4 teaspoon worcestershire sauce (vegetarian) (optional) |
1 clove garlic |
ground pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Put all ingredients into a blender and puree until smooth. Cover and chill until ready to serve. |
