Southern Caesar salad with cornbread croutons, bacon, and diced pimentos in a creamy Caesar dressing is a delicious twist on the classic dish!

Ingredients
- 2 romaine lettuce hearts, washed, dried, and chopped

- 4 strips bacon, cooked and chopped
- 2 tablespoons diced pimentos (from a 4-ounce jar), patted dry

Instructions
- Place the lettuce in a large bowl. Add dressing, as much as desired, and toss until the leaves are lightly coated. Start with a small amount of dressing, toss, and then taste. You can always add more if needed!
- Add the bacon, pimentos, croutons (however many you want) and Parmesan cheese; gently toss again. Season with black pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For a shortcut, use a store-bought Caesar dressing (this is one of my favorites).
- Instead of making homemade croutons, purchase a package of cornbread croutons.
- Use iceberg lettuce, chopped kale, or mixed spring greens rather than romaine.
- Add more bacon or more diced pimentos, if you like.
- Include additional vegetables for more flavor, such as chopped tomatoes, chopped cucumber, sliced red onion, or pickled red onions.
