Prepare the croutons first, if you want a gluten-free crouton make these Polenta versions instead. Whisk up the dressing. Slice up the lettuce and serve. If you want a bit extra protein, baked tofu or grilled chicken work well, too. You will want to cook those up just prior to tossing your salad.

Do you have bread that is a tad too old to enjoy anymore? Just slice it into chunks, toss with a bit of olive oil and toast until dry. They store great in your fridge for a couple of weeks or in the freezer for longer. Top them on salads or soups.

Caesar Salad

A classic Caesar starts with a raw egg yolk, anchovies and fresh parmesan. The raw egg is not always the best idea for those with more delicate immune systems (pregnant/nursing moms, kids, elderly) so we replace it with acidophilus rich yogurt instead. Anchovies are technically optional, try a vegan worcestershire sauce instead. Try anchovies if you have a chance, they are omega-3 rich and give the perfect touch to the classic caesar.

For the croutons, try our homemade or gluten-free polenta croutons.
