• In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, and black olives (if desired). Toss gently to combine.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until well combined. This is your Caesar dressing.
• Pour the Caesar dressing over the salad and toss well to ensure all the ingredients are coated.
• Place the bread cubes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
• Bake the croutons in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden and crispy.
• Remove the croutons from the oven and let them cool slightly.
• Sprinkle the homemade croutons over the Caesar Salad just before serving. Toss once more to distribute the croutons evenly.
• Divide the Caesar Salad into individual serving bowls and garnish with additional grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
