Need an easy lunch idea for the week? This super simple Restaurant Style Caesar Dressing can be thrown over salad (homemade or bagged) for a quick midday meal. Add grilled salmon or rotisserie chicken, or sub in crispy chickpeas for a vegetarian option. And if you’re not feeling a salad, throw the whole mix into a wrap or tortilla.
