Chicken Cesar salad

Hands down the best salad ever ever ever??
I am so addicted…the sauce, the CHEESE, the croutons…it’s so good!

I like a tuna mayo salad and Greek salad, but Cesar salad is the Goat

Sorry for the boring post 🤣

I think a really good Nicoise is a very very close second. The tuna has to be cooked from fresh confit in olive oil though

I agree with you - I love a caesar salad, as long as no-one decides to add those bastard anchovy fillets, which some people seem to insist on using.

But a blue cheese wedge salad with bacon comes a very close second

You do need to add anchovies and green olives.

My favourite...with anchovies!

OP you have started this thread in bad faith

Going on about a Caesar salad and then you disclose, drop the bombshell, let the cat out of the bag, come out the closet, spill the beans and come clean, that you dont have anchovies in it!!!

What is wrong with you?

You can’t make this claim if you are excluding anchovies. Obviously.

TheRubyExpert · Yesterday 19:27

Agree, a Caesar salad always hits the spot! Plus a side of fries of course. It’s very good with halloumi instead of chicken if you want to make it veggie.

Although a Greek salad in Greece is just soooo good! That’s definitely my number 1 salad. But perhaps that’s down to being on holiday 😂 same with a Caprese salad!

It is indeed the GOAT but needs delicious anchovies.

But you can keep the hurty croutons. Nasty.

Anchovies yes, olives absolutely not! (I love an olive but not on a Caesar!)

OP YANBU it’s my fave!

Black olives in a Nicoise and tuna, not anchovies

I agree!

Wearingshadesindoors · Yesterday 19:44

It’s the cheese what does it though 😋

I made one last night, but had the sauce from a bottle, I literally poured almost all of it on and later was licking some poured on a spoon as I wanted more 😫that taste

Olives and the olive brine drizzled over too.

Do you want to know how I bastardised my chicken Caesar for lunch the other day? I added a pouch of posh chickpeas! Totally non traditional and I was convinced it wasn’t going to work but it was really good.
