Gem Lettuce Wedges with Sundried Tomato Caesar Dressing
Print Recipe
With this salad, it's all about the Sundried Tomato Caesar Dressing. The dressing is made a little lighter than traditional caesar dressing, nixing the mayo and using sundried tomatoes to boost the flavor. Adorable little gem lettuces cut in half make for the perfect side salad. Serves 4 to 8 in 15 minutes.
