So, I love me some Caesar salad, but I can't imagine myself cooking with a can of anchovies. Maybe I'm closed minded, but I don't like fish that comes in a tin... oh, except for Tuna, which I actually like a lot.

My friend Ian gave me this recipe and I like it because it fulfills my need for an anchovy-less Caesar dressing, and it's a great recipe for my leftover roasted chicken. I think y'all will all enjoy it.
