Classic Vegan Caesar With Avocado & Chickpeas
Ingredients
Dressing:
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup water (plus more for thinning)
- 2 tsp fresh grated garlic (see note)
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes
- 2 tsp whole grain dijon mustard
- 1/4 tsp salt
Salad:
- 8 oz romaine (2 hearts) chopped
- Handful of baby arugula
- 15 oz can chickpeas rinsed and drained (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 1 pc avocado diced
- Fresh black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Stir together the dressing ingredients in a small bowl, or a coffee mug. Use a fork to blend smooth. Add additional tablespoons of water to thin, as needed. Taste for salt and seasoning. It should be slightly salty, because the saltiness will subside when you dress the salad.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the greens with the dressing. Add the avocado and chickpeas. Serve with fresh black pepper sprinkled on top.
