Servings 1 salad

Ingredients
  

Salad

  • 1 cup romaine lettuce chopped
  • 1 cup kale chopped
  • 1/2 cup spinach chopped
  • 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 tbsp caesar salad dressing or vegan sub
  • 2 tbsp parmesan cheese or vegan sub
  • 1/2 Avocado Sliced, optional

Croutons

  • 2 slices gluten free bread vegan
  • 1 tbsp herb infused olive oil
  • 2 tbsp garlic and herb seasoning

Instructions
 

  • First, make the croutons: Cut the bread into 1" cubes. Drizzle the cubes with olive oil, add them to a parchment lined baking sheet. Next, sprinkled the bread cubes with dried garlic and herb seasoning and bake them on 400 for 5-10 minutes until they are crispy and brown. You can also air fry them on 400 as well! Make sure to continuously keep checking the croutons to make sure they are not burning. They cook very fast in the air fryer!
  • Once the croutons are done, chop the greens and add them to a bowl together. Mix so they are fully combined and each bite will be a piece of each green.
  • Add the croutons to the salad. Top with caesar salad dressing and a splash of lemon juice. Sprinkle with cheese and serve!
