These Caesar Salad Crustini’s take the best of the traditional salad {THE CROUTONS!} and amplify it to the 100th degree! A crispy, buttery, garlicky HUGE crouton topped with a cool traditional Caesar Salad! Yummy!
The inspiration for this came from my sweet 11-year-old daughter who loves Caesar Salad. Anytime I ask her what type of salad she wants with dinner 100% of the time she says Caesar. This past weekend we were talking about dinner and my daughter mentioned that she wanted extra croutons in her salad. Then a second later she had the idea that I make huge croutons and add some salad to the top! Perfection!
- 1 Loaf of French Bread
- 1 Head of lettuce
- 1 Bottle of Caesar Dressing
- Parmesan Cheese
- 4 Tablespoons of Butter, melted
- 2 Cloves of Garlic, crushed
- Slice Bread into 1/2 slices
- Combine butter and garlic
- Spread butter mixture onto bread
- Broil bread until it’s crisp
- Combine lettuce and dressing, toss to coat lettuce well
- Top bread with salad mixture and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese

I’m a fairly new fan to Caesar Salad…I went most of my life being afraid to try it until it was served to me and I really didn’t have a choice (unless I wanted to starve and be rude). I ate it and loved it! Love your creative twist!
Such a clever idea. I wish my kids liked Caesar!
I got the blue cheese, the rest i take from here – nice concept.
Thanks Michael! I’ll have to try it with blue cheese! Sounds delicious!
Oooh yum! It’s like one big crouton 🙂
Those are right up my alley! They sound amazing.
What a clever idea – the salad ON the crouton!
