Kale Caesar Salad

I’ve always loved a good Caesar salad, and it is definitely a favorite in my family as well. I’ve spruced this version up with kale, a Greek yogurt Caesar dressing, homemade croutons and shaved parmesan cheese.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups artisan bread chopped into small cubes
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • A pinch of both salt and pepper
  • 4 anchovy fillets
  • 2 small garlic cloves
  • cup finely-grated parmesan cheese plus 3 tablespoons parmesan for garnish
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 4 cups kale rinsed and torn into bite-sized pieces

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Place cubed bread on a baking sheet, drizzle it with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle a pinch of both salt and pepper. Bake for 5 minutes. Use a spatula to flip the croutons and then bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy all the way through.
  • Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack. To make the dressing, use a food processor or blender to combine the anchovy fillets, garlic cloves, ⅓ cup finely grated parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, olive oil and Greek yogurt until smooth.
  • To assemble your salad, combine kale, Caesar dressing and croutons together in a large bowl and toss. Sprinkle top with remaining 3 tablespoons of parmesan cheese. Serve and enjoy.
