Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese grated
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice fresh
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Combine all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Pour over chopped romaine, toss well, and garnish with additional cheese and a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper, if desired.

Notes

Use grated Pecorino Romano or swap with Parmesan for a milder flavor. Thin the dressing with a little extra water if you prefer a looser consistency; best when tossed with chopped romaine and finished with extra cheese and freshly ground black pepper.
