We highly suggest you stop whatever it is you're doing and pay attention to our new favorite way to make a summer Caesar Salad
If you haven’t tried grilling romaine lettuce, then you are seriously missing out and need to make our Grilled Caesar Salad ASAP. Grilling lettuce may sound counterintuitive, but stay with us because this dish is seriously worth making.
This technique will add a little something special to your plate and makes for a beautiful presentation.
This salad can easily turn into an entrée salad by adding grilled chicken, fish or as we did, some Grilled Lemon Garlic Shrimp.
If shrimp aren’t your thing, then try this Marriage Saving Grilled Salmon or our Buttermilk Marinated Grilled Chicken.
