Caesar salads can be huge fat traps with their creamy dressings and deep-fried croutons. Not this one. Make your own tangy, low fat Caesar salad dressing, and use either fat-free croutons from the grocery store or bake your own croutons.
Use rotisserie chicken for speed, or top your salad with slices of freshly grilled skinless chicken breasts.
Ingredients:
1 large head of romaine lettuce, torn
2 cups chopped, cooked, skinless chicken breast
1 cup fat-free or low fat croutons
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
.
Dressing:
1/3 cup plain non-fat yogurt, drained (or fat-free mayonnaise)
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp anchovy paste (optional)
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 garlic clove, crushed
Preparation:
Arrange torn Romaine lettuce in a big serving bowl. Top with chicken, croutons and sprinkle with cheese. Whisk dressing ingredients together and drizzle over salad. Gently toss until combined. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste.
