Brush olive oil on the romaine lettuce.

Sprinkle salt and black pepper on the romaine.

Preheat the grill and place the lemons on it.

Place the romaine cut-side down on the grill.

Grill until charred, checking for a nice char.

Grill the other side of the romaine for a bit longer, but leave it less done in the middle to keep it together.

Remove the romaine from the grill and set it on a platter.

In a blender, combine soaked cashews, capers, a bit of olive oil, garlic, Dijon mustard, nutritional yeast, freshly squeezed lemon juice, water, and salt and pepper to taste.

Blend until smooth, ensuring most cashew pieces are broken down.

Drizzle the dressing over the grilled romaine and serve.
