Grilled Caesar Salad
Grilled Caesar salad is the perfect accompaniment to just about any piece of meat you choose to grill or is perfect on its own. Grilling the romaine imparts a slight smokey flavor that is unique for a salad. Grilling also softens the crisp romaine slightly and the warmth really helps bring out the flavor. Using room temperature salad dressing is essential. You want to eat this salad slightly warm to get the most out of the flavors.
