Vegan Caesar Salad Mountain

This ain’t your grandma’s soggy caesar salad. We’ve grown quite fond of creating mountains of nutritious goodness, so pack your hiking gear because this time we’ve taken the humble Caesar salad to the next level. We’ve made a flavour-packed vegan caesar dressing with the help of Vegan Nutritional Savoury Flakes which is the perfect substitute for that cheesy substitute with the added benefit of being a vegan source of vitamin B12. The real game-changer in this recipe is our delightfully smokey sweet potato bacon, that will definitely have you coming back for a second serving.
