Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/2 baguette -- such as sourdough or french

1 large head of romaine lettuce

or 2 hearts of romaine, well rinsed and

dried

CROUTON SEASONING:

1 clove -- minced or pressed

1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary

2 tablespoons olive oil

DRESSING:

2 sun-dried tomatoes -- (not packed in oil)

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise

1 tablespoon dijon mustard

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 clove -- minced or pressed

1 teaspoon capers

1 teaspoon caper brine

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 kalamata olives -- (to 3) pitted** and chopped

1/2 cup parmesan cheese

 

In a small heatproof bowl, cover the sun-dried tomatoes with 1/4 cup boiling

water and set aside to soak for 10 minutes.

 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut the baguette into 1-inch cubes and bake

on an unoiled baking sheet for 10 minutes or until golden.

 

Meanwhile, tear the romaine into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large

serving bowl. In a small saucepan, saute the garlic and rosemary in the olive

oil on medium heat for a few minutes, stirring to prevent scorching. When the

garlic is golden, pour the oil and seasonings over the bread cubes and toss

together right on the baking sheet. Set aside.

 

Drain and mince the softened sun-dried tomatoes. Place 1/2 of the sun-dried

tomatoes and rest of the dressing ingredients in a blender and whirl until

smooth.

 

Toss the croutons and Parmesan with the romaine. Drizzle on the dressing and

scatter the reserved sun-dried tomatoes on top.
