Ingredients

Scale

Salad Ingredients

  • 16 ounces mini seedless cucumbers
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese (shaved)
  • 1/2 cup Caesar dressing (or to taste)

Toasted Breadcrumbs

  • 1/2 tablespoon salted butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon panko breadcrumbs

Instructions

  1. Toast the Breadcrumbs: In a small skillet, melt 1/2 tablespoon of salted butter over medium heat. Add 1/4 teaspoon of panko breadcrumbs and toast them, stirring regularly, until they turn golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
  2. Prepare the Cucumbers: Slice the mini seedless cucumbers into thin 1/4-inch slices. Transfer the slices to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Assemble the Salad: To the cucumbers, add 1/2 cup of shaved Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons of the toasted breadcrumbs, and about 1/2 cup of Caesar dressing (adjust quantity to taste). Toss everything together thoroughly until the cucumbers are evenly coated with the dressing and toppings.

Notes

  • Use mini seedless cucumbers for a crisp texture and sweet flavor that complements the Caesar dressing.
  • Adjust Caesar dressing quantity based on your preference for creaminess.
  • To make the breadcrumbs extra crispy, ensure constant stirring while toasting.
  • This salad is best served immediately to maintain cucumber crunchiness.
  • For a lighter variation, use a low-fat Caesar dressing.
