Share:
Ingredients
- 2 heads of cored romaine lettuce cut into 1 ½” pieces
- ½ cup shaved Parmesan cheese
- 1 croutons recipe
- 1 Caesar dressing recipe there will be some leftover
- coarse salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the lettuce, cheese, croutons salt, and pepper.
- Using a spoon add the desired amount of dressing to the inside of the bowl around the lettuce touching the bowl (see video).
- Thoroughly toss the greens using tongs until the lettuce, cheese, and croutons are coated in the dressing and serve.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: This recipe is meant to be eaten as soon as it is mixed with the dressing. However, it can be made the day before if the lettuce, dressing, cheese, and croutons are kept separate and covered in the refrigerator.
- How to Store: Place each ingredient in its own plastic container or bag and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This recipe will not freeze.
- Feel free to add more dressing, croutons, or Parmesan cheese as you see fit.
- Be sure to serve the salad immediately after tossing in the dressing.
- Some additional Caesar salad toppings are anchovy fillets, chicken, steak, tuna, salmon, shrimp, or hard-boiled eggs.
