Instructions

  1. For the dressing, combine all the dressing ingredients together and whisk vigorously, shake together in a jar, or blend until well-combined.
  2. Toss the romaine lettuce and Parmesan cheese with the dressing. Top with the croutons and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Croutons: here is a homemade method.
  • Dressing: sometimes I like to add a dollop of mayonnaise or thick, plain Greek yogurt (about 2 tablespoons) to the dressing before blending to give it a creamy texture. And sometimes I don't. Either way is delicious.
