Salad Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Romaine
Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly under cold water. Dry it using a salad spinner or by patting it with a clean kitchen towel. Chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large salad bowl.
Crouton Preparation
- 2
Make the Croutons
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the bread into cubes and place them in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then add garlic powder and salt. Toss until the bread is evenly coated. Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from oven and let cool.

Combine and Serve
Once the croutons have cooled, add them to the bowl with the romaine lettuce. Pour the fat-free Caesar dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Grate fresh Parmesan cheese over the top to finish. Serve immediately.
