Creamy Vegan Caesar Dressing

This is really so good. Caesar dressing is one of my favorites, but I'm sensitive to the strong sardine taste in some recipes. No fish-flavored sorrows here. I'm already looking forward to making more.

Creamy Vegan Caesar Dressing

1/2 c. unsalted raw cashews soaked overnight and drained
1 lemon
1 T. capers
3 cloves garlic
1 T. dijon mustard
1/4 c. extra virgin olive oil

Juice and zest lemon and set aside. Grate garlic with a microplane. Add all ingredients to food processor and mix. The dressing should be creamy, continue to add water until it is the right consistency. Use immediately or set aside. If saving for later, this dressing will continue to thicken. If it is too thick to use later, just incorporate a little hot water to the dressing to bring it back to life.

Too thick!

After adding some hot water, its just right!
