Do you think this would be good?

Question

Ingredients

2 Tbs blanched and ground almonds

3 cloves garlic

3 Tbs nutritional yeast flakes

2 Tbs soy sauce or tamari

1 lemon OR 3 Tbs lemon juice

3 Tbs Dijon mustard

1/4 c water

1 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil or flax seed oil (optional)

1 lg head romaine or salad greens of your choice

Directions

Grind almonds in food processor (if needed). Add all remaining ingredients except the salad greens and blend until smooth. Toss greens (and any other veg you like) with salad, and serve!

would it be bad if i left out the oil and nutritional yeast? (no stores sell the yeast and olive oil is wicked expensive)

Answer 1

In lieu of the nutritional yeast flakes, I'd throw in some soy Parmesan by Galaxy Foods from the refrigerated foods section for that cheesy parm flavor. The olive oil is what binds it and gives it richness. You could look into buying a gallon can of olive oil from a Greek or Middle eastern market where they are usually less expensive, or you can use the less expensive salad oil if you want. Most dressings are made with salad oil. I buy in bulk for the convenience and savings.

I think this would be pretty tasty with soy parm and whatever oil you can find. A little cracked pepper would be great, too.

From Wiki:

"Nutritional yeast has a strong flavor that is described as nutty, cheesy, or creamy, which makes it popular as an ingredient in cheese substitutes. It is often used by vegans in place of Parmesan cheese."

Answer 2

Answer 3

Yes, sounds great!   You have to search your local grocery store for price friendly Olive Oil. It is so good for you.  Another salad dressing you can try that uses Olive Oil:     Olive Oil, soy sauce, a touch of sugar, and vinegar.  You could use Vegetable or sunflower oil but I prefer Olive oil.  Good luck
