Caesar salad has been one of the most popular salads since it was first created by the folks at Caesar Cardini’s restaurant in 1924.
Rich in flavor and easy to make, Caesar salad often appears at parties…perhaps a little too often.
The truth is, most people serve Caesar salad almost the same way everytime they make it. And that’s a shame, because with a few twists, Caesar salad can be an exciting part of almost any gathering, party, or holiday.
One interesting variation on Caesar salad that we’ve come across for a Deconstructed Caesar Salad With Parmesan Toasts from the folks at Once Upon a Plate is definitely a twist worth taking.
Pared down to its most flavorful components, this party friendly Caesar salad is just the thing to make when you seek a low maintenance salad that looks as fresh as it tastes.
