Hey gang!
This week’s marinated salad is a riff on a classic Caesar salad featuring crisp radicchio, tender shredded kale, plenty of fresh cracked black pepper, and shavings of Parmesan cheese on top to add a nutty, salty note.
To be real with you, I usually just use store bought caesar dressing for this but I’ve got a recipe for a high-protein caesar in the macros section below if you want to really up that protein content.
Macros along with low-calorie & high-protein versions are at the bottom of this post.
I hope you enjoy!
