Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Greens

    Wash and dry the Romaine lettuce and arugula. Chop the Romaine into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl. Add the arugula and halved cherry tomatoes to the bowl.

Walnut Topping

  1. 2

    Toast the Walnuts

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the walnuts. Toast them for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are fragrant and lightly browned. Remove from heat and let cool.

  2. 3

    Season the Walnuts

    Once the walnuts are cooled, toss them with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl until evenly coated.

Caesar Dressing

  1. 4

    Make the Dressing

    In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Pour the Caesar dressing over the salad greens and toss gently to coat. Top with the seasoned walnuts. Serve immediately.
