This is the best Caesar salad you will ever have. Really. And there’s no dairy and the croutons are grain-free. Enough said.
Ingredients:
- * 1/2 cup raw cashew
- * 1/2 cup water
- * 2 tb extra virgin olive oil
- * juice of 1/2 a lemon
- * 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- * 1 garlic clove
- * 1 tsp liquid amino
- * 2 tsp caper
- * sea salt to taste

- * for salad:

- * for the crouton:
- * 1 or 2 bagel (i used grain free one),
- * 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- * sea salt and black pepper
- * 1 tsp garlic powder
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
- Toss the crouton ingredients together in a medium bowl.
- Spread them out on a baking sheet and bake until slightly golden and crisp (mine took about 13 minutes).
- Place all of the dressing ingredients into a blender and whiz it up until really smooth (I used my Vitamix, so it was pretty fast)
- In a large bowl, toss together kale and Brussels sprouts.

- Sprinkle the croutons onto the salad and gently toss again.
- Enjoy!
