Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If you don't have anchovy paste, you can use 8 anchovy fillets. Just drain, cut them up and mix with the remaining dressing ingredients.
  • tip 2
    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.
  • tip 3
    Jazz up this classic salad with grilled chicken breast. Or for seafood lovers, top the salad with 1 pound cooked peeled deveined large shrimp.
