  • Prep 15 min
  • Total 15 min
  • Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup olive or vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons anchovy paste
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 1 large bunch romaine, torn into bite-size pieces (10 cups)
  • 1 cup garlic-flavored croutons
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Freshly ground pepper

Steps

  • 1
    Mix oil, lemon juice, anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, salt, mustard and garlic in salad bowl.
  • 2
    Add romaine; toss until coated. Sprinkle with croutons, cheese and pepper; toss.

  • Anchovy paste is a great choice for Caesar salad, as it can be kept for months in the refrigerator! Look for it in larger grocery or discount stores, near the condiments or salad dressings. It comes in a tube (like toothpaste), within a box.
  • For 9 grams of fat and 115 calories per serving, decrease oil to 3 tablespoons, increase lemon juice to 1/4 cup and add 2 tablespoons water to the anchovy mixture. Decrease cheese to 3 tablespoons.
  • Jazz up this classic salad with grilled chicken breast. Or for seafood lovers, top the salad with 1 pound cooked peeled deveined large shrimp.
