This version of Caesar Salad Dressing, which hails from the 1940s, is considered one of the more acceptable close-to-authentic versions. It’s easy to make — just assemble it all in a blender, and whiz. Make up to a day ahead and store in fridge.

Caesar Salad is usually incredibly fattening, sadly. This incredibly delicious version is very close in taste and composition to the 1940s classic versions, while lightening the salad up a fair bit.

Feel free to vary the veg in the recipe according to what you have on hand or what looks good at the store. Bear in mind, though, that the idea is to end up with veg in the pasta that have some crunch to them to give it interest.
