Ceaser Salad

This is my recipe. It's been perfected through the years and I am proud to say it is MINE. It's not everyday that you can call a recipe your own right? Usually you got it from someone or some book and you made some variation to it or another. Not this one. Sure, it was once based on a collection of recipes. But I've made so many changes over the years (yes YEARS) that I think it's safe to say that it is mine.

And now I will share it with you!

Ingredients:

1 head of Romain Lettuce cut up to squares (you could also just buy the bagged lettuce).
1/2 cup of shredded Swiss cheese
Croutons to taste

Dressing:

3 tbs Mayo
2-4 tbs milk
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
 1/4 c. Parmesan cheese
salt to taste

For the dressing, just throw it all in a bowl/bottle and mix is well. If you like it thicker, then go easy on the mil, if you like a thinner dressing, add more milk. Be sure to make this decision after you're added the Parmesan cheese though because it will thicken up the dressing quite a bit.

In a large bowl toss the lettuce and the Swiss cheese until they are well mixed. Right before serving (or else the lettuce will wilt and get gross) mix in the dressing and top it off with the croutons.


Pair it with some sort of meat, grilled is usually my favorite, and you're got perfection!
