Ceasar Salad

Honestly such a great meal that is cheap, good for you and most importantly delicious. I recently made it and will share the recipe so you can too.

INGREDIENTS:

3 hearts of romaine (pull away the floppiest, greenest outer leaves)

cup grated Pecorino Romano, plus additional cheese for serving

½ cup Hellmann’s mayonnaise

¼ cup water

1½ teaspoons red wine vinegar

1 garlic clove

2 anchovy filllets

¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

¼ teaspoon Tabasco

8 turns freshly ground white pepper

Fine sea salt, if needed

Freshly ground black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS:

Trim the root ends from the romaine, separate the leaves and wash and dry them. Place the lettuce in the fridge to chill while you prepare the dressing.

Combine ¼ cup of the Pecorino with the remaining ingredients (except the black pepper) in a blender and puree until the dressing is smooth. (If you don’t have a blender, mince the garlic and anchovy, then whisk them together with the rest of the dressing ingredients.) Taste and add salt if necessary; the cheese, mayonnaise, Worcestershire and anchovies are all salty, so you probably won’t need any additional salt. Add the ¼ cup of water to thin the dressing; add more water as needed.

First photo is just the salad and dressing in the second photo I added homemade croutons, bacon bits, boiled egg and shredded chicken breast, surprisingly I enjoyed the plain salad more. Hope you guys enjoy this simple recipe.
