Instructions

  1. Wash romaine lettuce leaves thoroughly in cold water and spin completely dry in a salad spinner.
  2. Tear or chop the crisp leaves into bite-sized pieces and transfer to a large wooden salad bowl.
  3. Drizzle half the Caesar dressing and fresh lemon juice over the greens.
  4. Toss gently with salad tongs until every leaf is lightly and evenly coated.
  5. Add the garlic croutons and half of the shaved Parmesan cheese, tossing once more.
  6. Top with the remaining shaved Parmesan and a generous crack of black pepper, serving immediately.

Notes & Tips

Completely drying the romaine lettuce prevents the creamy dressing from becoming watered down.
