For the homemade garlic croutons:

• 4 slices of day-old bread, cut into cubes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

For the Caesar dressing:

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) for making the garlic croutons.
2. In a large salad bowl, combine the torn romaine lettuce, garlic croutons, and shaved Parmesan cheese. Toss gently to mix the ingredients.
