Grilled Caesar Salad

Caesar Salad is a favorite in our family! I wanted to feature the fresh baby lettuce I received in my Talley Fresh Harvest box and decided grilling it was the perfect way to show off this beautiful fresh lettuce.

Grilled Caesar Salad


3 heads baby lettuce, cut in half lengthwise

Homemade croutons (recipe below)

Favorite Caesar Dressing

Freshly Shaved Parmesan


Heat your grill to high heat. Place lettuce, cut side down on grates, and sear quickly until sear lines appear and lettuce turns bright green. Remove immediately and place on a large serving platter. Drizzle with your favorite Caesar dressing, homemade croutons, and freshly shaved parmesan.



Homemade Croutons


Fresh Baguette or a loaf of sourdough

Olive oil

Salt & Pepper


Tear bread into bite-size pieces.  Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add bread and oil, toss until bread browns and gets crispy on all sides. This takes about 15 mins. Once toasted, remove from pan and let cool.
