VEGAN CAESAR NEVER TASTED SO GOOD!
Vallie Gilley is the owner of Jitters Coffee Pub and founder of Oside Kitchen Collaborative which is a zero-waste, plant-based and sustainable kitchen. How amazing is that?! Our planet would benefit so much if everyone followed in Vallie’s footsteps, striving towards a zero-waste lifestyle. I know this seems like a super difficult way to live, but Vallie has proven it can be done, and it is not that difficult. There are ways you can start small, working towards the goal of zero-waste. For example, composting is easy. Save all your food scraps for composting. Try and reduce the amount of plastic you use, with the goal of eliminating it altogether. Eliminate disposable paper products. Use only reusable. Just google how to live a zero-waste life and you will see there are many ways to get started. I admit that I am not living a zero-waste lifestyle, but I am trying to reduce my waste to the best of my ability, with the goal of gradually reducing my waste more and more so it becomes a lifestyle rather than a life rule.
Now let’s get back to this delici0us BOMB Vegan Caesar Salad! From the homemade (easy) croutons to the Brazillian nut parmesan cheese, homemade cheesy garlic dressing, and fresh greens, jicama, cherry tomatoes, and lemon squeezed on top, this is the BEST Caesar Salad you will ever have. This is one of the most requested recipes of Vallie’s, and now it is yours. Enjoy!
