Pritikin Caesar Salad

The Pritikin Eating Plan recommends you eat at least 5 (and preferably many more!) servings of vegetables and greens each day for super nutrition. Plus, you’ll just naturally eat fewer calories and shed excess weight. The problem is, many salads in restaurants are calorie busters that are anything but healthy, racking up nearly 1,000 fat calories on average. Get all the deliciously tangy goodness of a Caesar but for about one-tenth the calories with this Pritikin Caesar Salad, always a hit in the dining room at the Pritikin Longevity Center.

    I’m going to be one of those people who says “But this isn’t a true caesar salad because it doesn’t have anchovies” etc etc etc but I’m also going to say this is just a good salad on its own. Whatever we decide to call it!
