Watch me make this dressing!
This is one of my very first recipes when starting on my low carb journey. This recipe was stuck in a long post about my weekly menu from almost 2 years ago! So I am reposting it and reminding everyone that this is a great onion-dip alternative! This dip tastes amazing with cut up veggies! I especially love dipping cucumber slices! But if you want caesar dressing just thin it out a little with half and half or heavy cream- whatever you have! So much flavor, low carb, simpleeeee! What more could ya want!?!
lil carb Caesar Dip & Dressing
1 Cup Mayonnaise
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dijon mustard
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp fish sauce- to avoid the anchovy paste I found this does the trick and you can find it in the international aisle in most grocery stores.
2-3 smashed garlic cloves- the food processor will do the chopping
1/4 tsp black pepper
-Taste and add a pinch of salt if you think it needs it.
---For dressing follow exactly above then: Add in 2 Tbsp heavy cream or half n half
In a food processor add all the ingredients and pulse for about 45 seconds until smooth!
For a caesar dip the above recipe is perfect! I like to dip veggies into this dip as an onion dip alternative. People love it! For a dressing just thin it out a little and you are all set for caesar salads!
I made this without the fish sauce because I didn't have any in the house and figure it will have a little longer shelf life in the fridge without it. This was delicious! Thanks for sharing this recipe
