Caesar Salad
Crunchy, garlicky, and cheesy, this is the best Caesar salad! It's loaded with protein-filled roasted chickpeas and the tastiest homemade Caesar dressing. Watch the video below to see how I make this in my kitchen!
Ingredients
- 1 romaine lettuce roughly chopped, head
- 1 recipe chickpeas roasted
- ⅓ cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
- ½ recipe caesar dressing homemade
Instructions
- Mix together. Add the lettuce, chickpeas, parmesan cheese, and dressing to a mixing bowl. Stir together.
- Serve. Transfer the Caesar salad to a serving bowl, and if you'd like, garnish with a little bit more parmesan cheese before serving.
Notes
- To store the salad: Any leftovers (that have been tossed in the dressing) will last for 3 to 4 days in the fridge. But if you want to keep this salad on hand for a day longer, keep the dressing separate from the other ingredients.
- To store the dressing: The dressing will stay good in the fridge for up to one week in a sealed container.
- Make-ahead tips: Make the roasted chickpeas and Caesar dressing, and grate the parmesan cheese a day before! That way, you can quickly toss the salad with all the ingredients you've prepped in under 5 minutes.
