Light Caesar Dressing

Light Caesar Dressing

Everyday

Light Caesar dressing is a lower-calorie adaptation of the classic salad dressing, typically made with yogurt or buttermilk instead of traditional egg yolks and olive oil. It retains the creamy texture and tangy garlic-Parmesan flavor profile while reducing fat content by 30-50% compared to regular versions, though some brands may increase sodium or add sweeteners to balance flavor. This modern variation often omits anchovies, making it vegetarian-friendly, and is widely used for salads, grain bowls, and as a vegetable dip.
