Is Caesar dressing vegan?

Traditional caesar dressing isn't vegan because it contains parmesan cheese, mayo (which has eggs) and sardines. But great news, this particular recipe is vegan because it's made from tahini, olive oil and nutritional yeast. It's a great option for vegan and plant-based diets.

Is caesar dressing a dairy product?

Caesar dressing is not a dairy product but the original recipe contains parmesan cheese but this recipe calls for the dairy free alternative, nutritional yeast!

What is vegan caesar dressing made from?

  • olive oil
  • lemon juice
  • dijon mustard
  • tahini 
  • coconut aminos 
  • garlic
  • salt and pepper
  • nutritional yeast
  • pure maple syrup
  • fresh chopped parsley

What salad dressings are vegan?

A salad dressing qualifies as vegan if it does not contain any animal products including cheeses, yogurt, honey and more. This vegan caesar and this easy fresh herb vinaigrette are great options. Just swap out the honey for maple syrup!
