This kale caesar salad has a creamy greek yogurt dressing and crispy garlic chickpeas instead of traditional croutons. A delicious and healthier alternative to traditional caesar salad.
While I love caesar salad, it is definitely not the healthiest choice out there. Between the romaine lettuce, the dressing, and the croutons, there’s not a lot of nutritional value to a caesar salad. Enter the kale caesar.
This kale caesar salad swaps romaine lettuce for kale, which is one of the most nutrient-dense foods available.
It swaps croutons for chickpeas, which add some protein to keep us feeling full.
And the traditional oil-heavy caesar dressing is swapped for a greek yogurt based dressing, lightening it up considerably.
Despite these swaps, this is one seriously delicious salad. Those chickpeas are highly addictive!
