A refreshing twist on the classic Caesar salad, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, light mayonnaise, anchovy paste, minced garlic, and freshly ground black pepper until smooth.
For a creamier dressing, use an immersion blender to mix the ingredients.
Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.
Ensure the lettuce is thoroughly dried to prevent the dressing from becoming diluted.
Pour the dressing over the lettuce and toss gently to coat evenly.
Add the dressing gradually to avoid overdressing the salad.
Top the salad with toasted croutons and serve immediately.
For added flavor, sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese on top before serving.
