It also brings swimsuit season, which means it is time to slim down, shed the winter insulation and eat better. This is one of Kyle's favorite salad dressings I make. One of my best friends, Amy, started to learn to cook last year and I gave her this dressing along with one other recipe. Her fiance loved it so much, they made it for a week straight!
Ingredients:
- 1 Head of Romaine Lettuce
- 1 loaf of ciabatta bread
- Garlic salt
- olive oil
Dressing:
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbs anchovy paste
- salt and pepper to taste
- a dash of Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 2 tbs lemon juice
- 1/2 cup olive oil
Cut romaine lettuce in half and put on grill or grill pan. This will give it a smokey flavor and give beautiful grill lines. Set to side until dressing and croutons are ready.
Croutons:
Chop bread into bite size pieces and add to hot pan, sprinkling with olive oil and garlic salt. Toss until toasted and put to side.
Dressing:
Blend all ingredients except olive oil in blender (I personally love my Bella Cucina small blender because it is an easy clean-up and a perfect size for salad dressings...also for smoothies!). When blended to a chunky consistency, add oil and blend until smooth. Top on romaine and add croutons.
Happy Eating,
Emi
