Cucumber salad
Description
The salad is quick and easy to prepare. This isn't just another tasty salad among countless others. This is a harmonious salad, which is a rare find. What do we love most about "Caesar"? Its crunchy base—croutons and lettuce. Authentic "Caesar" salad is made with romaine, the sturdiest of all leafy lettuces. Cucumbers here are like a long-lost third brother, whose return brings genuine joy to the entire family. They are just as crisp, so fresh, that even the classic Caesar dressing—just as caloric as the mayonnaise often used as a substitute—somehow feels lighter. So another advantage of this cucumber Caesar salad recipe is that it's much less calorie-dense than other versions with meat, fish, smoked ingredients, etc. A great salad. A lady's salad ;) The salad is ready to serve.
