Vegan Caesar Salad with Tempeh

Cultural Context

Caesar salad originated in Tijuana, Mexico, but has become a staple in Italian cuisine, often featuring anchovies. This vegan version embraces the classic flavors while substituting tempeh for protein and vegan mayonnaise for creaminess. It's a fresh take that's widely enjoyed, especially among plant-based eaters.
