Pastrami Caesar Salad
Experience the fusion of traditional Caesar salad with a savory twist of pastrami. This Pastrami Caesar Salad is not just a salad, it's a symphony of crisp romaine lettuce, crunchy croutons, and the rich smoky flavor of the pastrami, all bound together by a creamy Caesar dressing. A touch of Parmesan adds an elegant flair, while a squeeze of fresh lemon brightens the whole plate. This dish, inspired by the classic Caesar salad, which was first created in the 1920s by Italian chef Caesar Cardini, brings a new level of sophistication to your dining table.
