Chef‘s Notes

“Vegan caesar has never been easier thanks to this time saving hack! Using hummus as the base of the dressing gives you richness while being both nut and dairy free. Adjust the consistency to your liking by adding more hummus for a thicker dressing or more water for thinner. This dressing is packed with flavor thanks to brininess from the capers, cheesiness from the nutritional yeast, and umami from the miso. “

Preparation

Make the hummus Caesar dressing: In a medium bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of hummus, the mustard, garlic, nutritional yeast, capers, lemon juice, miso, and olive oil. Whisk until fully combined. Add another tablespoon of hummus if the dressing is looser than your desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The dressing will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Make the salad: Add the greens to a large serving bowl and lightly season with lemon juice and salt. Generously drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Finish with more black pepper, as desired.

Enjoy!
