For years I’ve been a Dr. Praegers stan, their veggie burgers are the only frozen veggie burgers that I’ve bought for years. That’s why, when the opportunity to work with them was presented, I didn’t think it twice. However, instead of going with a burger, I decided to challenge myself into creating a meal with their plant-based tenders.
Hence: Caesar Salad Tacos! Which has become my favorite quick lunch lately? Years ago, I used to love caesar salad; I would go to Costco just to get their huge bowls. That love quickly went away when I started transitioning to veganism and figured out what is actually in a caesar dressing: SO MUCH JUNK. However, a couple of weeks ago, I found Vegan Caesar by Follow Your Heart at my local supermarket. This drove me to create these tacos, but with a twist!
I used lettuce from my grandmother’s garden, roma tomatoes, plantain croutons, red onions Dr. Praegers Classic Chick’n Tenders & vegan caesar dressing. If you can’t find the vegan caesar or if you feel like making your own, here’s a foolproof caesar dressing recipe.
Ingredients
- 2-4 whole-wheat tortillas
- 3 Dr. Praeger's Classic Chick’n Tenders
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes, sliced
- 1 cup lettuce, chopped

Procedure
- Cook the tenders according to instructions on the package.
