Ingredients
Croutons
Dressing
- ¼ cup plain greek yogurt
- ¼ cup mayo
- 3 tablespoons grated parmesan
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 ½ teaspoons dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Salad
- 2 heads romaine lettuce washed and chopped
- 1 pound cooked grilled chicken breast
- ⅓ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Cut your bread into cubes and add to a baking sheet.
- Whisk up the olive oil, parsley, salt and pepper and drizzle on top the bread. Toss to combine.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Meanwhile, whisk together all ingredients for the dressing. Taste and adjust flavors as desired.
- Chop up your lettuce and add to a bow. I like to add most of the dressing on top, toss to combine, then add the diced chicken, croutons and parmesan, but you can do this in whatever order you like.
- Garnish with fresh black pepper and enjoy!
