Healthy Caesar Salad Dressing


Like my Snapware?  I keep it classy up in here...  For instance tonight me & E ate our salsa verde chicken enchiladas on paper plates.  We even used coated paper plates with gaudy flowers on the edges, which nearly requires we break out the stemware.  We're pretty impressive.  Really though... I actually do have nice serving bowls and platters, but those are reserved for when we have dinner guests.  Therefore, when I'm making myself Caesar salad for tomorrow's lunch it will be in Snapwear, and I will photograph it.  Hopefully one can look past the Snapwear to appreciate the deliciousness of Caesar and the fact that this dressing doesn't deliver fat content in the double-digits.  That way, if you like to eat some lettuce with your dressing, you don't need to feel guilty about it :)  

  • 1/3 cup Greek yogurt 
  • 1 Tbs olive oil 
  • 1 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese, (plus 1-ounce for sprinkling over the top; optional.) 
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce 
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced 
  • Juice of ½ lemon 
  • 2 chopped anchovy fillets or 2 tsp anchovy paste
  • 1/8 tsp sea salt 
  • freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • optional: 1 tsp water

Directions:  In a small bowl, whisk everything together.  If you want a more viscose dressing, add the water.  Refrigerate for about thirty minutes to allow the flavors to meld.  Serve over romaine lettuce.



Yields enough dressing for about 2 heads of romaine, or salad for four.
