60-Second Caesar Salad Recipe

croutons

🥗Healthier: toasted whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: store-bought croutons

Whole grain bread is more nutritious.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated cheese blend

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds flavor.

Caesar dressing

🥗Healthier: yogurt-based dressing

💰Cheaper: homemade dressing

Yogurt-based dressings are lighter and can be made at home.

Chop 2 heads of Roma lettuce into about half-inch pieces.

For the dressing, squeeze the juice from 1 lemon into a bowl.

Add 1/2 cup of mayo, 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon of anchovy paste, and 1 minced clove of garlic to the bowl.

Grate about 2 oz of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and add it to the dressing mixture.

Mix all the dressing ingredients together.

Gradually add 1 tablespoon of olive oil while whisking everything together.

Give the dressing a final whisk.

Toss the chopped lettuce with the dressing.

Top the salad off with some freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
