Directions

  1. Preheat grill for low heat and lightly oil the grate.

  2. Cut baguette on a severely sharp diagonal to make 4 long slices about 1/2-inch thick. Lightly brush each cut side with about half of the olive oil.

  3. Grill baguette slices on the preheated grill until lightly crispy, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Rub each side of baguette slices with the cut-side of garlic and cut-side of tomatoes. Set aside to cool.

  4. Brush 2 cut sides of romaine quarters with remaining olive oil.

  5. Grill romaine quarters until lightly seared, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Sprinkle grilled romaine with salt and set aside to cool.

  6. Place a grilled romaine quarter, cut-side up, on top of a grilled baguette slice. Drizzle each with Caesar dressing and top with Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and black pepper.

Recipe Note

A different Caesar salad and it is from your grill! Great with any grilled meat. I use a Caesar dressing from this site.
