Lemony Caesar Salad

This recipe for Caesar Salad replaces the pungent edge of anchovies with the bright clean taste of lemon.  It’s simple to make for just one person. The dressing, while it makes a jar full, keeps for a week or more in the refrigerator. Instead of croutons for crunch, the SimplyCooking® version of Caesar Salad uses toasted walnuts. Dinner tonight can literally be made in a jar.
