The classic Caesar Salad recipe calls for anchovies and croutons. This recipe is a crowd pleaser and no anchovies or croutons are needed. In fact it tastes amazing without them.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • One day or 8 hours in advance: Mince garlic into salad oil. Cover and let garlic infuse in oil until serving.
  • In serving bowl, tear lettuce into bowl, add diced tomatoes. 
  • In a separate bowl, beat egg and then add parmesan cheese, lemon juice, worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
  • Right before serving, pour garlic infused oil through strainer over lettuce and tomatoes. Toss well.
  • Stir parmesan mixture and then pour over lettuce. Toss well. 
  • Optional: Add croutons and toss
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

The salad is easy to make and takes no time. What does take time is the infusion of the minced garlic in the oil. I do this a day ahead or at least 8 hours ahead of time as the longer the garlic is in the oil, the better it will taste. 
If you don't have the time. Simply microwave the garlic and oil to speed up the infusion/flavoring process.
