Face it – if you like caesar dressing, you like anchovies.  No balking about it – it’s a fact.  These little salty gems are the base for this addictive dressing.  Serve it over a salad of crisp greens, cucumbers, tomato, kalamata olives and feta.  Or use it as a dip from crudité – matchsticks of carrots, celery, cucumber, bell pepper and squash couldn’t find a better home than this gorgeous greek salad dressing.

You can make this with only one clove of garlic if you’d like it a little milder.  And you can leave out the anchovies, but you’ll be missing out in a big way.  If your aversion has to do with fiddling around with the fishy filets, use anchovy paste in a tube instead.  It’s a little easier to control and gets the job done in the exact same way.  Bottom line – use the anchovies for true gorgeousness, because your kitchen should be a source of loveliness in every way.
