I do not remember where I got this recipe, but I was intrigued when I saw this. It took me a while to try it, but I was so very glad I did. It's garlicky, cheesy and the romaine gives it a bit of crunch.

  • 1 c
    olive oil
  • 1/4 c
    garlic, finely minced
  • 12 c
    romaine lettuce, cut into 1/2" strips
  • 2 c
    toasted homemade toasted bread crumbs

How To Make caesar salad pasta

  • 1
    Place chopped romaine in a large heat proof bowl.
  • 2
    While pasta is cooking, warm the olive oil and garlic in a small saute pan, over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add lemon zest and mix well.
  • 3
    Add lemon mixture and pepper to drained pasta and toss well.
  • 4
    Add pasta to romaine, top with Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs and toss. (Or place parmesan and bread crumbs in individual bowls and serve yourself)
  • 5
    Note: Homemade toasted breadcrumbs Toast several pieces of bread (Make extra at breakfast) and allow to set out 2-3 hours so it dries out completely. Tear into pieces and place in a food processor. Pulse until desired crumb is achieved. (No need to toast the breadcrumbs in the oven, it's already toasted!)
