My family loves Caesar Salad and I am always looking for ways to make the dressing lower in fat. That is one reason why we totally love this recipe! It delivers a fantastic Caesar dressing and it doesn't deliver extra calories! This is now in the regular rotation for my family! It is super light and in the summer, we love this as a lunch salad or a main salad and I can add in some grilled chicken and we are set!

My family also loves a little kick in our food, so add in a roasted Poblano Pepper and we are singing, let's eat!  

A combination of low-fat buttermilk, roasted poblano pepper, reduced-fat mayo, lime juice, minced garlic and in less than a half hour you will be enjoying this yummy Caesar Salad with Poblano Dressing! This makes a super scrumptious low-fat dressing and its a weight watchers dressing so you can keep wearing those skinny pants!  I like to double the dressing make mason jar salads! I put the dressing in the bottom and layer Kalamata olives and the lettuce on top!  The family eats these throughout the week! Super tasty!
