Caesar Salad With Cashew Dressing
This week I launched my delicious cashew butter on the Market (proud!), so I’ve been experimenting with the spread over the past few days. This plant-based, fresh and creamy Caesar dressing is to die for and is definitely worth a try!
How do I make croutons?
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350 F. Chop four slices of bread (I like to use sourdough) into small cubes. Transfer to a mixing bowl and toss in 50 ml/1/4 cup olive oil and season to taste with sea salt. You can also add 2 tsp dried Italian herbs. Spread the croutons evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in the middle of the oven for about 10-15 minutes or until golden and crispy. Give the croutons a toss halfway through the baking time.
Approx. 20 mins.

1. Make the dressing by adding all the ingredients to a blender, food processor, or using an immersion blender (recommended) and blitzing until creamy.
