Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp (if using)

    If you are adding shrimp, grill or sauté the shrimp in a pan over medium heat with a little olive oil until they turn pink and are cooked through (about 3-4 minutes). Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salad

    Wash and dry the hearts of romaine lettuce thoroughly. Chop or tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

  3. 3

    Add Dressing

    Pour the Caesar dressing over the romaine lettuce and toss gently to coat the leaves evenly.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese and Crostini

    Add the grated Parmesan cheese and crostini to the salad and toss again until well mixed.

  5. 5

    Serve

    If using shrimp, place them on top of the salad. Serve immediately and enjoy your Caesar salad!
