GRILLED CAESAR SALAD: this is a great twist for a savoury appetizer perfect for barbeque season

Ingredients

2 whole romaine hearts (cut in half (keeping ends on!) and washed)
4Tablespoonolive oil
1⁄2Cupcaesar salad dressing

Notes

  • try the Citrusy salad dressing-- it's vegan (no eggs,  mayonnaise ,  dairy)  which means the lemon and capers really stand out to make it zesty-- always a big hit-- people never wonder where the anchovies are.  
  • If you do dairy, you can still add some good quality shaved parmesan to make it even more delicious and crowd-pleasing. 

Instructions

  • Preheat barbeque to medium high heat 350-375°F (180-190°C). 
  • Oil grill to prevent sticking.
  • Cut the romaine heart in half lengthwise (keeping end on  so the leaves stay intact!).
  • Wash it and dry (in tea towels) 
  • Lightly drizzle romaine halves with olive oil
  • Place the romaine (cut side down directly) on the grill. 
  • Cook for 1 minute or until nice char marks show up.
  • Turn over romaine and be attentive.
  • You want the inside of the lettuce to be cool but the outside charred and smokey.
  • Remove romaine from the grill.
  • Drizzle with Citrusy Caesar Salad Dressing and Shaved Parmesan and Croutons, and season with salt and pepper.
