Instructions
How to Make the Caesar Salad Dressing
- Combine all of the ingredients into a container that you can use an immersion or hand blender in to mix the ingredients. Alternatively, you can place this all in your blender.
- Process and blend all of the ingredients together, adding in more garlic and lemon to taste if you want. ( I am Ukrainian so there is always room for more garlic!) Set aside
Assembling the Caesar Salad
- Place the lettuce in a large bowl.
- Toss with the dressing until the lettuce is coated completely.
- Top with the bacon, croutons and the Parmesan. I do NOT mix it in because as you know, they all go to the very bottom!
- Right before serving, mix the toppings into the top layer of lettuce, not the bottom, just slightly so that you have a layer of toppings for everyone to dig into.
Notes
- This is NOT the traditional Caesar salad as that one uses egg yolks and oil as the base, not mayo. This however is my VERY favorite Caesar salad!
