Caesar Salad without croutons is a lighter take on the classic dish originating from Italian-American cuisine, specifically Tijuana, Mexico, where it was first created in the 1920s. This version features crisp romaine lettuce, tangy Parmesan cheese, and a creamy Caesar dressing typically made with lemon juice, olive oil, egg yolk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and anchovies. By omitting the croutons, the salad becomes a lower-carb option while still delivering its signature savory flavor. It provides a good source of fiber, vitamins A and K from the romaine, and healthy fats from the olive oil. However, the dressing may contain significant sodium and calories, so portion control can help maintain its health benefits. This crouton-free variation is ideal for those seeking a gluten-free or keto-friendly salad option without compromising on taste.
