It’s hard to beat the fresh goodness of a crisp Caesar salad. And if you follow a few nutritious preparation guidelines, you can make it as healthy as it is tasty. For instance, here’s a great recipe using a homemade low-fat dressing and Brussels “sproutons” instead of traditional bread croutons. Phyto Active Foods dried Brussels sprouts offer the just the right texture and crunchiness to accent this timeless favorite. Here’s all ​you need:

1 head ​Romaine lettuce
½ cup dried Phyto Active Foods ​Brussels sprouts
¾ cup non-fat plain ​Greek yogurt
3 tbsp extra-virgin ​olive oil
3 tbsp freshly squeezed ​lemon juice
1½ tsp ​anchovy paste
1½ tsp ​Dijon mustard
½ cup freshly grated ​Parmesan cheese
1 garlic clove

Put the yogurt, Parmesan, olive oil, lemon juice, anchovy paste, mustard and garlic in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. When finished, toss the Romaine, Brussels sprout croutons and newly made Caesar dressing until nicely mixed. Top with additional Parmesan cheese, if desired, and ​Hail Caesar!
