Salmon Caesar Salad

September 5, 2016

This is not your typical caesar salad.

Salmon Caesar Salad | www.stuckonsweet.comI hope that’s okay with ya! Caesar salads are one on my very favorite salads – I crave them often. I like how simple and crunchy they are and I can’t get enough caesar dressing.

But sometimes it’s nice to switch things up, ya know? Spice things up a bit like roasting chickpeas and capers and adding them to your salad. Yes…you need to roast capers…it’s the most amazing thing ever. Roasting chickpeas is not unheard of – very healthy and a great crunchy snack but roasting capers is not so typical, but it totally should be. They turn into the tiniest yet most powerful bites of the salad.

Instead of chicken, top your caesar salad with roasted lemon salad then lastly add a little avocado because avocado is good in every salad. Other than those ingredients, you have your typical stuff like parmesan cheese, croutons and maybe some tomatoes.

I topped with parsley for fun, but it’s not necessary.

I like to make a salad once a week to keep things simple and healthy at our house. Other nights include, pasta, maybe steak or soup. Adding a salad to your weekly menu ensures you’re getting nutrients and it feels nice to have something a little lighter.
