Just made this gem from the Moosewood Daily Special cookbook. Rave reviews from family and friends. Perfect for those who fear anchovies. Great springboard for tangy-dressing options. Would be wonderful on streamed cauliflower.

Time 15m

Yield 1 large salad, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 sun-dried tomatoes, softened (not packed in oil)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon capers
1 teaspoon capers brine
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 -3 kalamata olives, pitted and chopped

Steps:

  • In a small bowl or ramekin, cover the sun-dried tomatoes with 1/4 cup boiling water and set aside to soak for 10 minutes. Drain and roughly chop the softened sun-dried tomatoes.
  • Place all ingredients in a blender and whirl until smooth.
  • Drizzle dressing on romaine lettuce and toss with optional croutons and Parmesan.
  • Note: I didn't have a lemon so used 3 tablespoons of the tomato water and a couple additional capers.
