WORLD’S EASIEST 3-INGREDIENT PLANT-BASED CAESAR DRESSING
As it says on the proverbial tin, I do believe this is the easiest alternative to a Caesar dressing you will find. I posted it on Instagram a long time ago, but pointing people to a recipe on my blog is far more convenient than directing them to “look way back in my Instagram gallery…
