California Caesar Salad
This salad--with a dressing that's even livelier than the traditional Caesar--has been popular in Patti Garrity's family for more than 35 years. The recipe makes about 1 cup dressing, enough for this and several additional salads. Chill extra dressing airtight up to 2 weeks.
