Because of this recipe I now think of myself as a Caesar Salad snob. Most do not meet my expectations. This recipe, however, is delicious! I got it years ago from a friend and the recipe card is so well used that I can barely read it any more.
The Caesar dressing is thick and delicious! 
I highly recommend taking the time to make Homemade Toasty Croutons to serve on this salad. The boxed type just aren’t good enough for this delicious Caesar Salad. I’m giving you the recipe just as I received it probably 25 years old. It’s seriously so delicious that it is my most requested salad by friends and family. I’ve brought it to so many potlucks I’ve lost count!

I love caesar salad so much! And definitely agree on homemade croutons…so much better than boxed!
Well-loved, tried and true classic recipes like this are the best!
I am pretty sure I would have done lemon in this dressing so I am beyond excited to try it out with lime.
How long will the Caesar Dressing last in the frig? There are only 2 of use & one is often on the road.
I think I could safely say 3-4 days. If you’re worried about it, you could always half the recipe and make a smaller amount.
