Creamy Caesar dressing with crisp kale, croutons, bacon, and parmesan!

Provided by Holly Nilsson

Categories     Appetizer     Salad     Side Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch kale (washed, dried, and torn into bite-sized pieces)
1 cup croutons (store-bought or homemade )
4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled)
⅓ cup parmesan cheese (shredded)
1 cup mayonnaise
¼ cup parmesan (shredded)
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ tablespoon dijon mustard
1 teaspoon anchovy paste* (see note)
fresh black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all dressing ingredients until smooth.
  • Wash kale and dry well. Gently "massage" the kale with your hands until the leaves are somewhat softened and a darker green. While this is optional, it makes for a more tender leaf.
  • In a large salad bowl, combine kale and croutons. Top with dressing as desired and toss to combine.
  • Sprinkle with ⅓ cup parmesan cheese and bacon bits.

KALE CAESAR SALAD

Traditional Caesar salad that uses kale instead of romaine! Makes 4 side-dish portions, but you can make it a main dish meal by topping it with a grilled protein, such as chicken or salmon! You may have leftover dressing, depending on how much you like. It keeps well in the refrigerator for up to a week.
