I love to cut up vegetables. But I do not like to make salad. Not at all! So I am always surprised when I do make one that I think, “Hmm, this is good! I should do this more often.”

Caesar salad with shaved Parmesan and croutons

I had a bunch of romaine lettuce in the refrigerator left over from the Father’s Day celebration that didn’t happen plus some Caesar salad dressing (no anchovies) that I had bought for the same occasion. I made the croutons from the one hamburger roll left (from non-Father’s Day as well.) I diced the roll and cooked the cubes slowly in some butter and herbs and spices. I always have a hunk of parm in the house so I just used my peeler to make some shavings.

We enjoyed this so much!
