This refreshing Caesar Salad Wrap is simplicity at its finest. A homemade, five-ingredient Caesar dressing is drizzled over a bed of romaine lettuce and parmesan cheese. Finally, we nestle all of this veggie goodness within a high-fiber wrap for a quick and easy DIY lunch.

If you’re looking for a delicious way to get in your veggie servings, this Simple Caesar Salad is your flavorful answer. Lemon juice, anchovy, garlic, olive oil and Dijon come together to create a versatile, tasty dressing. Vibrant green romaine lettuce packs in fiber and nutrition. However, feel free to swap in a leafy green of your choice. If you’re on a low-carb diet plan, nix the wrap and enjoy your Caesar creation in a bowl. You can also pump up the protein with grilled chicken.
