Steps:
- Discard the tough outer leaves from the romaine and use the whole leaves and hearts. Wash the leaves and dry them in a spinner, or pat dry with a towel. Wrap loosely in a damp towel and refrigerate.
- Preheat the oven to 375*F.
- Add the garlic to 1 tbls. olive oil and toss with the cubed bread. Spread the cubes on a baking sheet and bake for 7-8 minutes, until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
- To make the vinaigrette:.
- Combine everything but the oil, then whisk it inches The dressing should be very lemony and bright. This makes about 1/2 cup.
- When you are ready to serve the salad, place the lettuce in a large bowl. Add the olives and toss with the vinaigrette, coating all of the leaves.
- Add the croutons and Parmesan cheese and toss again. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and serve. Don't forget to enjoy! :).
