Caesar salad without chicken and tomatoes: Yevhen Klopotenko shares an interesting option
Salads are an ideal dish for lunch, dinner and a festive table. One of them is a delicious and very easy to prepare salad: Caesar. It's worth noting that there are many variations of this salad, with different sauces and different ingredients. For example, fish, seafood, bacon are often added instead of chicken, and plain mayonnaise is used instead of the classic sauce, which spoils the taste of the dish.
