Caesar Salad Recipe

Caesar salad tastes great but typical Caesar salad dressings are often high in fat, so they're not so good for us if we're trying to lose weight. What makes this Caesar salad so good is that the dressing is quite light while still being full of flavour.

If you're not being too careful about fat and calories, parmesan cheese shavings can be added if desired.

If you thought Caesar Salad was off the menu while you are on a diet, think again. Just be careful not to eat too much.
