Mixing up a basic salad to keep my dinner time fresh and interesting! Sliced Brussels sprouts Shaved Parmesan Prosciutto or Bacon, crumbled Chicken breast, sliced Caesar Dressing- 2 parts store bought Caesar Dressing 1 part fresh lemon juice 1 part EVOO S&P ETC. I never make Caesar dressing, so I find adding some lemon juice and olive oil make it taste homemade and less bottled. This works for other store bought dressings as well. Adding some vinegar or citrus and oil to dressings can make it taste fresher. Torn croutons would be fantastic on this too.
