Caesar Salad

I've been trying to focus on salad ever since I overdosed on all things sweet in December.
When your birthday is the first day of December, it just goes downhill from there.  In a good way.
I don't usually order Caesar salads at restaurants because if they are authentic, they have anchovy paste in the dressing and that is just too much for me to stomach.
This dressing recipe is a Pampered Chef recipe and contains no anchovy paste or anything even remotely related to anchovy paste.
Salad:
Romaine lettuce, washed and torn
grape tomatoes, halved
Parmesan or romano cheese, shredded
Caesar style crutons

Dressing:
3/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup grated parmesan
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. dijon mustard
1/4 tsp. black pepper

*Mix dressing really well and drizzle over salad just before serving.

    I just found your blog and browsed around the desserts. I make the caramel pretzel bites and posted some for Christmas. I love your idea of using the pretzel chips!
