Caesar Salad without croutons is a lighter twist on the classic recipe, offering a vibrant mix of crisp romaine lettuce, creamy Caesar dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, and optional protein-rich toppings like grilled chicken or shrimp. Originating from Italian-Mexican cuisine, it was first crafted by chef Caesar Cardini in the 1920s. Removing croutons reduces carbohydrate content, making it suitable for low-carb or gluten-free diets. The salad shines with a nutrient-dense base of romaine lettuce, rich in vitamins A and K, while the dressing and cheese provide calcium and protein. However, the dressing is typically high in fat and sodium, so portion control can help manage calorie and salt intake. This variation strikes a balance between indulgence and nutrition, allowing diners to enjoy bold flavors with a mindful approach.
