Smoked Salmon Caesar Salad

By SaraB

Ingredients

• Dressing
• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
• 3 Tbs Dijon mustard
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/4 tsp dried thyme
• 3/4 cup olive oil
• Salad
• 1 small head romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
• 1 cup croutons
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 lb smoked salmon, cut into strips
• lemon wedges

Preparation

Step 1

For dressing: Whisk first 4 ingredients in small bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil. Season to taste with pepper.

For salad: Combine first 4 ingredients in large bowl. Add enough dressing to coat; toss well. Divide among plates, garnish with lemon wedges.

(Sara's note: I never make more than 1/2 the dressing recipe, it's plenty for a large salad.)
