- 1/4 c. milk (I use low fat or fat free milk)
- 1/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese (or you can use the shredded Parmesan in the bag found in the dairy case-don't use the one in the can though-it's way too dry and salty)

- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 8 c. torn Romaine lettuce*
- 1/3 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese**
- 1 c. seasoned croutons
