Unlike traditional Caesar salad, ours uses no oil in the dressing. Instead, it relies on tangy low-fat buttermilk. Multigrain croutons also help save on calories and splurge on flavor.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup well-shaken buttermilk
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons minced shallot
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons finely chopped chives

  • Serve the crab salad immediately or chill it for later. Crab salad can be served on its own, as a sandwich filling, or as a topping for salads or crostini.
  • For the buttermilk Caesar dressing, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor.
  • Be sure to taste the dressing before serving and adjust the seasonings to your taste.
  • The buttermilk Caesar dressing can be used on salads, as a dipping sauce for vegetables or chicken, or as a marinade for grilled meats.
