This was spot on - great taste, great table presentation and easy to boot! First time we had a grilled salad and it certainly won't be the last. I would leave the salt out all together, the dressing makes up for it.

Who would have thought?! In the interest of saving calories I skipped the caesar dressing and just sprinkled on a little Worcestershire sauce and parmesan cheese. Thanks for a great accompaniment to any grilled meat.
