Notes

Thanks to Live, Eat, Learn for the fabulous vegetarian Caesar salad dressing we use in this recipe.

For the croutons, we make our own gluten-free version. Toss cubed gluten free bread with canola oil, minced garlic, and salt. Bake at 400 F on a sheet pan for 15 minutes, rotating sheet pan half way through baking.
