Caesar cole slaw shakes up your usual picnic or cookout favorite by adding in the flavors of one of your favorite standby salads.
Caesar Cole Slaw
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
My recipe of the day is with #BBQWeek again and today’s selection is for Caesar Cole Slaw. All week long bloggers are sharing their favorite recipes to have at cookouts.
Almonds for Crunch
This recipe is a riff off one of my favorite salads-the Caesar. It doesn’t have croutons in it, but as I started doing back when I first used to do low-carb, I ditched the croutons and in their place used toasted almonds, which I love. You might find that you also like to do this when you make the normal salad with romaine lettuce.
Need Dressing?
The cole slaw also uses generic Caesar dressing- which you can buy if you like, but I also have a recipe for it: Caesar Dressing. If you do end up buying some, Marie’s is pretty good.
What to Serve
It’s probably no big surprise that I like to serve this Caesar cole slaw with things like grilled chicken breast or grilled salmon. There are lots of types that this would pair with, even the simplest.
