Best Ever Caesar Salad with Homemade Croutons
Who doesn’t love Caesar salad? My students get very excited when they find out we are making this recipe in class! It’s an ideal way to introduce children to eating salad greens. You can also use the dressing for other salads or as a dip so that they will eat more vegetables.
