Description
1 serving of a standard bottle of Caesar dressing contains 120 calories, 12 g of fat, no protein, mayo made from soybean oil, and a paragraph of ingredients. This healthy version on the other hand has less than half the calories, a third of the fat, and quadruple the protein. Plus, it only contains simple ingredients, and is made in just 5 minutes. No raw eggs either! You can also check out any of my other salad dressings!
