Grilled Turkey Caesar Salad

Now wildly popular, Caesar salads are readily available with all sorts of toppings -- this recipe uses healthy grilled turkey.

Cooking Time: 8 to 10 minutes
Number of Servings: 4
Preparation Time: 20 minutes

You Will Need
2 garlic cloves, peeled
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 pound boneless, skinless turkey breast
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Vegetable cooking spray
8 cups romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
1/2 cup garlic croutons
1 ounce Parmesan cheese

What to Do
1. Heat grill. With a mini-processor or side of a chef's knife, mash garlic cloves until pastelike. Put garlic paste, lemon juice, yogurt, and oil into a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake until blended.

2. Sprinkle turkey with salt and pepper and lightly coat with vegetable cooking spray. Grill until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Cut turkey across the grain into 1/2-inch-thick slices.

3. Toss together romaine, croutons, and turkey until combined. Shake dressing to mix. Drizzle salad with dressing and toss lightly.

4. To serve: Divide salad evenly among 4 serving plates. Shave strips of Parmesan with a vegetable peeler evenly over salads.
