Crispy Lemon Parm Salad. This salad is only a few ingredients and takes 2 minutes to prep. The crispy lettuce paired with the nutty parmesan is everything I love in a simple salad. It tastes like Caesar, but better! The recipe is inspired by my foodie friend @erinnobrienn as she shared a similar recipe on her Instagram page last year, so be sure to give her some love!

- 1/3-1/4 cups good quality grated parmigiano Reggiano, measure with your heart
- croutons are optional , homemade or store-bought
Instructions
- Wash, dry, chop the lettuce and add it to a bowl.
- Add a pinch of salt, a drizzle of olive oil, lemon juice and finely grated parm.
- Cube two slices of bread and season with salt, dry oregano, and drizzle on a touch of olive oil.
- Bake the croutons on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper at 400F for 12-15 minutes until golden or on the stove.
