Best thing abt home cookiing? Can customise it!
Of late, I have developed a fondness for Caesar salad but the anchovies and chunks of chicken really do put me off (very difficult to get veggie Caesar salad in HK for some reason!). And the time had come to address my craving with some efforts at home.
It's surprising how simple it is to put together a good Caesar salad without using anchovies, chicken, raw eggs and mayonnaise!
Ingredients
- Caeser romaine leaves
- Croutons
- Crushed garlic
- Salt
- Pepper
- Olive oil
- 2 spoons Greek yogurt
- Lemon and lime juice
- Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Wash and put the salad leaves in a large bowl
For the dressing - combine all the other ingredients, except croutons, in a bowl and mix well. Let sit for an hour or so.
Add croutons to the salad leaves just before eating.
And pour the dressing on the leaves, mix well. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top, if desired.
Your healthy, yummy, low calorie salad is ready! Eat immediately after preparing else the leaves will lose their fresh crunchiness.
Do let me know of other low calorie substitutes for salad dressings! Hope you liked the recipe and will try it out sometime soon! :)
