Caesar salad is a popular dish that originated in Mexico, credited to Italian-American restaurateur Caesar Cardini in the 1920s. This classic salad features crisp romaine lettuce, crunchy croutons, grated Parmesan cheese, and a creamy, tangy dressing made with ingredients like egg, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Dijon mustard, and anchovies. Often served with grilled chicken or shrimp, it's a staple in Italian-American cuisine. While romaine provides fiber, vitamins A, C, and K, the dressing and toppings can add calories, sodium, and fat, particularly if prepared traditionally or in large portions. Health-conscious diners can opt for lighter dressing versions, fewer croutons, or additional lean protein to balance the dish. Caesar salad offers a mix of indulgence and nutrition, but moderation is key.
