Savory Caesar Salad Dressing

Ingredients:

1 large garlic glove
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 tube anchovy paste
1 heaping teaspoon Dijon mustard
Dash of tabasco
2 shakes of Worcester sauce
2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar
1/2 fresh squeezed lemon
6 heaping tablespoons parmesan cheese

Directions:

1.  In a small food processor, combine all ingredients, beating well after each item is added.

This Caesar salad dressing has been passed down in my family for years.  The trick when making this dressing is to add the exact amount of each ingredient, as the recipe says.  If you do not, the dressing might turn out quite badly.  Unlike the Caesar salad dressing sold in stores, this dressing is light and easy to make.  There is a perfect mix zest and tang.

This dressing goes well on sandwiches, salad, and even as a dip for parties.  My personal favorite is shrimp Caesar salad.  Buying a whole grain baguette pairs well with this too, to mop up the left over dressing when you are done your salad.

Just buy some fresh Romaine lettuce, croutons, extra parmesan cheese, and shrimp and you have a healthy dinner at your finger tips!
