Creamy Ceasar Dressing

Making salad dressing yourself can give you a much healthier product and cater to your personal tastes. I have two Ceasar dressing recipes that I like equally, one creamy and the other a rich olive oil version loaded with garlic, yum. I made this one today because I wanted it on more than salad, I drizzled this over a baked potato. I'm sure given enough time I could come up with a multitude of things to dip or drizzle over, this is just plain good.
1 cup mayo (I used Vegenaise because it is all grapeseed oil, but use what you prefer)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 large or 2 small garlic cloves
1 table anchovy paste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon parsely
I put all of this in a cup and use my smart stick to blend it, a blender or magic bullet works well too.
It is that easy. Really.

    I make all my own salad dressings also. I have a buttermilk ranch, a vinaigrette and a balsamic vinaigrette the we love. This recipe sounds really tasty and Caesar is my son's favorite. I will definitely be trying this one. Your blog looks really interesting. I'm going to spend some time here!! :o)
