Creamy Dressing Caesar Salad

Okay, this is another recipe that exemplifies where I am headed with this blog. It's all about friends and family and the connectedness through food (and recipes). So, Sarah and I have sort of a little special bonding around making food. She gets so
excited and driven when she gets going, I love getting caught up in the wave with her. Okay, so she has these other blogs she follows, food and fashion blogs. One in particular she has shared with me, and I have perused, is the Closet Cooking (or something like that)...he has incredible recipes, and what is super impressive is his incredible photos of his creations...

So, here's the recipe. We leveraged a couple things, including the closet cooking and somewhere else... Basically, a little this, a little that...whatever's in the fridge... Pog is not a huge vegggie fan, so this was a perfect deal for tonight, since Pog was at Rugby practice.

Dressing:
1/3 c plain (good) yogurt
2 Tbsp Meyer lemon juice
1 Tbsp Olive oil
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp ground pepper
1 minced garlic clove (ok, that was a big clove, but dang...so much garlic)

Combine everything in a bowl with a whisk.

Salad:
Romaine lettuce head, shredded
Broccoli florets
Avocado - cut up
Cabbage - sliced up fairly thin.
pine nuts and croutons to taste
Parmesan cheese grated to taste

Okay, that was a lot of salad, but none left for tomorrow....and holy smoke,
crazy too much garlic I will be tasting for a while. Sarah loved it.
