This vegan salad dressing is you ceasar-style but dairy-free and anchovy free.
INGREDIENTS:
1/3 Cup Coconut Yogurt (or other non-dairy based yogurt)
1 TBSP Olive Oil
1 TBSP Lemon Juice
1/2 clove of Garlic
1 tsp capers, minced
1 tsp brown mustard seeds
black pepper (I used 2 twists, fresh cracked)
METHOD:
Place all of the ingredients into a blender.
Whirl.
Taste. Add pepper to taste. Adjust seasonings, as needed.
Enjoy right away, or store in an air-tight container in the fridge.
NOTES:
This is good served over romaine lettuce. But it is also good as a salad dressing over any greens. Capers grow in a plant family which is closely related to cabbage and mustard. Capers give this vegan dish its saltiness, which is a substitute for anchovies which are traditionally used in the non-vegan version.
This is a vegan spice mix, you can make at home. There is no poultry in poultry seasoning. This is adjusted to remove allergens specific to the people I am cooking for.
INGREDIENTS:
Celery Salt
Ground Black Pepper
Parsley
Onion Powder (adds browning, without sugar)
Sage
Thyme
METHOD:
Place the spices, in relatively equal amounts into a bowl or jar. Mix. Store in air-tight container.
NOTES:
Great by itself, sprinkled on poultry before baking, added to breading (flour, arrowroot, chickpea flour, etc) in a bag for a shake-n-bake style seasoned coating, or in vegan meat substitute recipes.
Home made, versitle, low-carb, keto friendly refrigerator pickles. You can make these seasoned either: sweet, garlic, 5-spice, old bay, dill, or any other spices/blends you can think of!

Copy Cat Recipe similar to Cracker Barrel’s Potato Casserole. This recipe can be made ahead and baked later. It is suitable to use as a freezer meal–by the ingredients when they are on sale, make them up, freeze, thaw over night in the fridge, bake for an hour when needed.
