Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to bake the croutons.

Preheat the oven

Cut day-old bread into 1/2-inch cubes. You can use sourdough, whole wheat, or any bread of your choice.

Prepare the bread

In a bowl, toss the bread cubes with olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and optional minced garlic or herbs like thyme or rosemary for extra flavor.

Season the croutons

Spread the seasoned bread cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 10–15 minutes until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through. Let cool.

Bake the croutons

Gather the ingredients: 1/4 cup olive oil or vegan mayo, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast, 1–2 cloves of garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon capers or anchovy paste (optional), salt and pepper to taste.

Prepare dressing ingredients

Add all the dressing ingredients to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with more lemon juice, salt, or nutritional yeast if desired.

Blend the dressing

Wash and dry a bunch of organic kale. Remove tough stems and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Optionally, massage the kale with a small amount of olive oil for 1–2 minutes to soften the texture.

Prepare the kale

In a large bowl, toss the kale with the prepared Caesar dressing until all leaves are well coated.

Toss kale with dressing

Top the dressed kale with the crunchy homemade croutons and a generous sprinkle of freshly grated Parmesan cheese (or a vegan alternative).

Add toppings

Serve immediately as a wholesome side or light meal. Enjoy your Organic Kale Caesar!
