Almond Caesar Salad 1/28/15

Almond Caesar Salad
Makes enough for you and 3 amigos

Fill that empty spot on your plate with this delicious caesar salad. The ingredients are inexpensive and the taste is fulfilling.

Ingredients:
1/3 cup sliced or slivered almonds
1/3 cup hot water
1 to 2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon capers
1 head of your favorite lettuce chopped up (I used a red romaine)

ONE: Put the almonds in a glass with the hot water and let them soak for about 15 minutes. Chop the garlic while this is happening. When the almonds start feeling kinda soft, throw them into a food processor or blender with the water they soaked in, the garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, and rice vinegar. Blend it all up until there are no more large almond pieces and it starts to look creamy. You know what Caesar is supposed to look like duh. Add the capers and run it for a few more seconds. Add to the lettuce and there ya go.


Yum
