Caesar Salad
This is a classic that every good recipe site should have a version of. This is my version largely due to the dressing. Do not attempt without!!
I think you already know that Caesar Salad is all about the dressing...so here is the rest of my recipe. You can get a lot of variations of Caesar Salad and I do love an avocado thrown in or even cherry tomatoes. But this is the ridgy didge version...without the coddled eggs, too hard on a large scale. Though of course if you wish!! Go for it.
