Notes

Variations to this recipe

Make it spicier. For more heat, try adding a sprinkle of cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, or a splash of hot sauce.
Substitute another mustard. I prefer Dijon in this Caesar dressing, but you could use any kind, including yellow, spicy brown, or stone ground.
Add some sweetness. You can try pure maple syrup, brown rice syrup, or any liquid sweetener you like. Add a little at a time, to taste.
Add some protein. For a creamy, thicker dressing, you can add some hummus to the dressing. This can also add a bit of flavor as the tahini and garlic go nicely with the other dressing ingredients.

How to Store this dressing
If you have leftover Vegan Caesar Dressing or made a double batch to use throughout the week, just place it in an airtight container or salad dressing bottle and refrigerate. It will last for 5-7 days.
