About Salad with caesar dressing

Salad with Caesar dressing is a classic dish originating from Italian-American cuisine, credited to chef Caesar Cardini in the 1920s. Typically, it includes crisp romaine lettuce, Parmesan cheese, crunchy croutons, and Caesar dressing—a creamy blend of olive oil, egg yolks, anchovies, garlic, lemon juice, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Its nutrient profile highlights fiber and vitamins A and K from the romaine and protein from the Parmesan cheese and anchovies. While the salad offers wholesome ingredients, the dressing is high in fat and calories due to its oil and egg content. Opting for smaller portions of dressing or lighter variations can make it more heart-healthy. Perfect as a starter or light meal, this timeless salad balances fresh greens with bold, savory flavors, catering to both health-focused and indulgent preferences.
