The BEST Caesar salad dressing ever!!!  I did use 2 cloves of micro planed garlic in place of the garlic salt, otherwise prepared recipe as written.  Even my non vegan fam loved it!  😊 

Best ever omg! Economical and nutritious! So good omg! Thank you

You are absolutely right, this dressing is delicious!  I just made it and had some with my spring mix salad.   I think this dressing would also work well as a mayo substitute for no-tuna salad sandwich made with chickpeas instead of tuna, what do you think?   Thank you for the recipe, it is fabulous and I have enough left over for several more salads.   I replaced the maple syrup in this recipe with one date.    

Desiree, I made this dressing for the first time and it's delish! I tossed it with chopped romaine lettuce and some homemade croutons for a simple lunch. Thanks for the recipe!

Thoroughly enjoyed this caesar salad. I would never have thought to add smoked tofu to this salad even though it’s a favourite of mine. Thank you 💕

This dressing is everything! It’s well balanced and just so fresh! I just had to try it and it did not disappoint. I added roasted chickpeas to my kale Cesar and was perfect. 

I added Nori (sea algae). 
Next time I will cut some of the vinegar and Dijon down a bit, it was quite bitter. I added some Veganaise to help with that.

Hope that these five stars show up on my below review!
