Thick and creamy Caesar Salad is not just something that you can only enjoy at a restaurant any more! This recipe has it all, creamy dressing (dairy free), crunchy croutons, crisp lettuce and the perfect amount of cheese on top. I use pecorino romano, which is sheep milk cheese and can sometimes be tolerated by people who can’t have cow milk. You can also use parmesan, which is more traditional. This is a great side salad to eat with Steak, Chicken, Salmon, etc. You can also add grilled chicken to it for a chicken Caesar Salad!

Colorado got buried with snow this past weekend… anywhere from 12 inches in the metro area to over 50 inches in the mountains! In Parker (Southeast Denver) where I live we got around 2 feet of snow.

Chicken Bacon Alfredo with Zoodles
This Alfredo will change the way you think about pasta forever. I apologize in advance, but you will never want to buy canned Alfredo sauce again!
