I've always been a big fan of caesar salad, but hate to admit I've used bottled dressing up until this point.. NEVER AGAIN!!This salad tastes as good or better than any fine restaurant! The homemade croutons are fabulous, infused with a wonderful garlic taste. The dressing is to die for. I used 2 anchovy filets instead of 3, for my husbands taste.. (I didn't mention it until after he ate the salad) He loved it! I actually mistakenly thought I had djon mustard, and really had a sweet mustard. I used about 3/4 teaspoon of the sweet mustard instead. It didn't ruin the taste one bit. I look forward to making this often, whenever we have our monthly lasagna or spaghetti. Thanks for a super recipe.

I am happily married to my best friend and we just bought our first house! No kids but we have 2 little dogs that we think the world of. I was born in California and although I have been on the East Coast for most of my life I am still displaced! I love the beach and hate the cold! In our free time we love to go to the beach or the mountains and hike or intertube down the lazy Shenendoah River. It is so beautiful there! I have loved to cook all of my life and will read cookbooks like they are novels!
