    Prepare the Focaccia Croutons

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the focaccia bread into small cubes. Spread the cubes on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat evenly and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, stirring halfway through.

    Wash and dry the romaine lettuce. Slice the lettuce into strips and place them in a large salad bowl.

    Assemble the Salad

    Add the focaccia croutons to the bowl of romaine. Shave or grate the Parmesan cheese over the top. Season with black pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine all ingredients.
