Mexican Caesar With Cilantro Lime And Pepitas
Mexican Caesar With Cilantro Lime And Pepitas
"Caesar Salad with Cilantro, Lime and Roasted Pepita (pumpkin seeds). The versatile dressing with a slightly spicy kick can also be used to drizzle on grilled meats or vegetables or as a mayonnaise alternative in many of your favorite recipes. Our version, which we call a “Mexican Caesar”, goes astray from the original and spices it up using some traditional ingredients in Mexican cuisine – fresh cilantro (coriander), roasted shelled pumpkin seeds (pepitas), fresh lime juice and a mild chile pepper. "
Notes*You can substitute a Poblano chile if unable to find and an Anaheim chile.
