Here is how you make Caesar salad (Home made dressing):

Cut bread into 3/8 inch cubes and toast till crisp. Toaster oven, or regular oven. Even toast it then slice it (a little messier but still gives you croutons...)Slice the bacon into 1/4 inch strips, start to cook them (crispy) while you prepare the rest of the salad.After they are cooked, press them between paper towels to soak up the grease (don't burn yourself). Set them aside to cool...While the bacon is crisping, break up the romaine lettuce and wash it, drain well (I use a salad spinner)to dry. Chop up garlic cloves (finer is better).In a small mixing bowl (if you have a Bullet mixer or small food processor or hand held chopper use it!)Put olive oil, chopped garlic, mustard, worcestershire, vinegar, lemon juice, tabasco and egg yolk.Mix these together until they come together to a mayonnaise consistency.Put leaves in a large bowl, add bacon, and dressing toss until well coated, add croutons and serve. Top with 1 tbsp of parmesan cheese and enjoy!Makes 6 servings.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user .
