You need to try this recipe! It is a must-try, I’m telling you!

Ingredients:

Dressing (or use 1 c of your favourite Caesar salad dressing):

1 c plain Greek yoghurt a thicker Greek yoghurt brand works best – I use Skyr non-fat
1/3 c freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp Dijon mustard
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
2 cloves garlic
2 tsp anchovy paste or 2 anchovy fillets highly recommended
salt and black pepper to taste

For the Salad:

3 c pasta cooked according to package directions and cooled (I used farfalle)
4 c romaine lettuce chopped
2 c cherry or grape tomatoes cut into halves
1 green onion thinly sliced
1 tbsp fresh basil leaves thinly sliced
1/4 c grated Parmesan cheese plus more for topping
salt and pepper to taste
1-2 c cooked chicken breasts diced (grilled, roasted or rotisserie would work great)
1 c croutons

Directions:

Step 1: Add all the ingredients for the dressing in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture turns into a puree.

Step 2: In a large serving bowl, add the pasta and dressing. Toss until well coated.

Step 3: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it inside the fridge to chill for at least 10 minutes.

Step 4: Add the remaining ingredients aside from the croutons. Toss until well mixed.

Step 5: Add the rest of the dressing over the salad and toss until well mixed.

Step 6: Add more salt and pepper if necessary.

Step 7: Sprinkle the croutons and grated Parmesan cheese on top.

Step 8: Serve and enjoy!

Note:

You can chill it first inside the fridge for 3 hours before serving.
