Creamy Caesar Salad Dressing

Along with my lasagna and herb toast the other night, I made a Caesar salad. I decided to try making my own dressing. It turned out really well.
It was the perfect accompaniment to an Italian dinner.



What you need,


2 small garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp anchovy paste or 2 anchovy fillets minced
2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 cup mayonnaise
½ cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper

If you find the dressing to thick you can use a couple of teaspoons of milk to thin it out a bit.

Toss some chopped romaine lettuce and a few croutons with some of the dressing. Then top with a few shavings of fresh Parmesan cheese. You could add some crumbled bacon in there if that kind of think floats your boat!


Caesar Salad! YUM!
