Friends! I have it! Finally!
After years and years of bemoaning the state of salad dressing in this country, I finally have a perfect Caesar dressing! It came about through a series of trials and errors and several recipe parts put together but this is it. It’s creamy. It’s salty. It’s tangy, thick and luscious.
It’s my go-to.
My party pleaser.
My Sunday night lasagna partner.
I’ve been making this stuff every weekend for salads all week long. We’ve found it’s also great as a dip, a sauce for chicken and who knows what else we’ll discover we love it on. It’s kinda like our new Ranch dressing.
Let me know if you try it! I think you’ll be a big fan of how easy it is and how awesome it tastes.
