Caesar dressing is the best dressing but its fattening and made with fish! Fish are filled with toxins!

Try this quick, easy, and delicious dressing recipe. Its high in Omega 3s so its great for you, and its
also a lower calorie version of the real deal. Its so good, people always ask me, "THIS is VEGAN?!?!"
I've made it for so many people and every single person, even the avid meat eaters LOVE it.

1/4 cup whole garlic gloves
1 tsp. salt
1/8 cup dijon mustard
1 lb. firm organic tofu, cut up
2 cups organic canola oil
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup lemon juice

Toss it all the the blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Voila!

    I would substitute the canola oil for something else as canola is almost always GMO :sick: Otherwise it sounds DELISH!

    Being vegan, I do miss creamy salad dressing! Being a vegan on a diet I use just straight balsamic 98% of the time.

    This sounds great.. Thank you :o)

    One quick question though... Do you happen to know what the serving size is and the amount of calories per serving?

    I like this recipe except for the tofuti; what's the point to add that? Fish are filled with toxins? Soy isn"t?

    I have one similar that's REALLY good - you should try it:

    1/3 c nayonnaise
    1/4 c olive oil
    2 cloves garlic, crushed
    2 Tbsp whole grain Dijon mustard
    1-2 tsp lemon juice or 1/2 lemon
    1-2 Tbsp maple syrup
    3-4 drops vegan Worcestershire sauce (try Angostura)

    1. Combine all ingredients in a blender/food processor until smooth...ENJOY!

    I'm not sure of the nutritional info, sorry.

    Organic, non GMO tofu is not filled with toxins and in moderation is much better for you than meat.
