Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated

to taste. Pour Caesar dressing over
the Romaine lettuce and carefully fold in the shrimp reserving a few for
the top. Spoon salad onto 8 chilled plates,
sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, the reserved seafood, add homemade croutons and serve.

can be made several days in advance, covered and
refrigerated
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, minced Combine oil,
Dijon mustard, lemon juice and garlic.

Slice bread 1/2-inch thick. Generously brush olive oil on both sides of bread slices, cut into 1/2-inch cubes and bake on a sheet pan at 275° until
