Salad

Croutons

Method

Croutons

  1. 1

    Prepare the Croutons

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the baguette into small cubes. In a bowl, mix the bread cubes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Spread the cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer.

  2. 2

    Bake the Croutons

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Stir once halfway through for even browning. Remove from the oven and let cool.

Salad Assembly

  1. 3

    Toss the Salad

    In a large salad bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, and half of the Parmesan cheese. Toss well to coat the lettuce.

  2. 4

    Add Croutons

    Add the baked garlic croutons to the salad and toss gently. Top with the remaining Parmesan cheese.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately with extra croutons and Parmesan on the side if desired.
