Caesar Salad in Parmesan Crouton Cups
Ingredients
- 16 slices white sandwich bread (or use wheat bread)
- ⅓ cup butter, melted
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1¼ cups freshly shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
- 1 small head romaine lettuce, finely shredded
- ⅓ cup Caesar dressing
- 1 cup multicolor cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F. Remove crusts from bread slices, and roll each into a 3-inch square. Brush both sides of bread with melted butter; sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Gently press each bread slice into bottom and up sides of a muffin cup in 2 (12-cup) muffin pans. (You'll have some empty cups).
- Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until cups are golden brown and crisp. Sprinkle ½ Tbsp cheese in bottom of each crouton cup. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans, and cool completely on wire racks.
- Toss together lettuce, dressing, tomatoes, and remaining cheese in a large bowl. Serve salad in crouton cups.
