- Greek yogurt Caesar salad is a healthier twist on the classic Caesar salad. It substitutes traditional ingredients with lighter alternatives to reduce calories without sacrificing flavour. The primary change in this version involves replacing much of the mayonnaise or oil in the dressing with Greek yogurt.
Benefits:
Healthier: Lower in calories and fats, higher in protein.
Digestive benefits: Greek yogurt contains probiotics that benefit gut health.
Versatile: It is easy to adjust based on dietary preferences or restrictions, such as using vegetarian Worcestershire sauce or omitting the anchovies.
This version of Caesar salad is ideal for those looking to enjoy a beloved classic with a healthier profile. It is suitable for a variety of eating plans while still delivering great taste and satisfaction.

Sorry! Thank you. Best, Rik
Love a Caesar! You have spoiled one of my favourite sources of entertainment - listening to American UA-camrs trying to pronounce "Worcestershire". Ha 🤣
Ha ha ha - yes there are some strange tongue twisting versions. Best, Rik
I love a good Caesar salad. Greek dressing … fantastic!
Goes well with Mediterranean life style
Indeed! Thank you. Best, Rik
Love the crouton recipe, I’ve tried in the past & just ended up with a soggy mess. A great salad for a barbeque.

Me too, I am going to try that dressing
It works really well. Best, Rik
Thank you. Best, Rik

Thank you. This is worth a go the dressing is delicious. Thank you. Best, Rik
Fun fact from a Yank across the pond… I’ve never had trouble pronouncing Worcestershire sauce because my father was born and raised in Worcester Massachusetts. So Worcester/Worcestershire sauce was always taught and pronounced Wooster/Woostershire sauce - and Dad never let us kids forget it. 😄😄
Ha ha ha, love it - Funnier fact We as kids were taught to spell Mississippi - I have no idea why apart from the learning - Miss - iss -ippi Thank you. Best, Rik
You get the most interesting bread loaves. Shapes etc. I wish I had such things in my market.

It looks so delicious. Great idea to use Greek yogurt. I love croutons so much, I eat salad as an excuse to eat croutons. 😅
Ha ha ha, that sounds fantastic. Thank you. Best, Rik
You're a wonder, Rik. Who would have thought that a Caesar salad would be so appetising.
I know many folks that don't like the original recipe with the anchovies in. Best, Rik
Mmm mmm yummy!
Thank you. Best, Rik
This looks delicious Rik I do love a good dressed salad and iv always got a Tupperware full of homemade croutons in the cupboard they keep so well thank you for a healthy tasty dish 🥗Amanda xx

In England rik you can get a bottle of Henderson’s witch is a veggie person’s alternative of Worcestershire sauce
Made in Sheffield. I cant get hold of it but trying. Best, Rik
Nice post. My favourite summer lunch has to be the British Ploughman's Lunch, with an ice cold lager. What's your take on a Ploughman's Rik? One for a busy day perhaps. Congratulations on your UA-cam plaque it is well deserved.
Love ploughman's. Thank you very much. Appreciated. Best, Rik
Awesome!!!! Delish!!!!!
Thank you. Best, Rik
I have a fancy expensive garlic press but I do find it gives more flavour than chopping!
Thank you for sharing. Best, Rik
So healthy with the yoghurt…..lovely xxx
Thank you. Best, Rik
That looks absolutely devine.
I made Citrus Chicken for lunch and have some left so Dinner sorted for tomorrow with your salad.
Our local bakery gives away bread at end of day some will surely be made into crutons 😊
Now that sounds like a good plan. Best, Rik
I’ll live off this all summer!❤🙏
Thank you. Best, Rik
Lovely Rik, I'm adopting this one for sure!
It works! Thank you. Best, Rik
I had my first Greek salad in a Shaky's pizza house on a motorway cafe on the side of the most toxic road in Manilla. Perhaps is was the Feta cheese that enhanced bad layer that i felt was accumulating under my very essense that i became the person i am today. A total idiot.lovely job as always feta cheese for not too bothered veggie people! bingo?
Thank you. Best, Rik
Simple but nice luvly job Rik. Cheers mate.
Agreed, Harold. Love simple food, no fuss. Thank you very much. Appreciated. Best, Rik

My ex a German lady used to make a lovely salad with rocket, bacon and finely sliced wood mushrooms and a garlicky olive oil with balsamic vinegar! I think?😮
Sounds amazing! Thank you. Best, Rik
I love it
Thank you. Best, Rik
Looks good!
Thank you very much. Appreciated. Best, Rik
That looks scrumptous. I love your channel. Ive learned a lot. You wouldn't by any chance have an easy recipe for focaccia, would you? I fail miserably with every recipe I try.🤪
Great suggestion. Thank you. Best, Rik
Roll on summer, that looked so good, I love a good salad, but it has to be iceberg, little gem or plain lettuce for me,not the rocket stuff that is so popular here at the moment, I’ve never had a Caesar salad but I will be doing that one soon ❤x
Sounds like a summer plan. Thank you. Best, Rik
Cant wait to try this, thanks Rik 😜
Thank you very much. Appreciated. Best, Rik
Rik, I've learned to call it watchyersister sauce. Ha!
HA ha ha ha ha. Love it. Thank you. Best, Rik
I’ll be making that for sure!❤
Its worth a go, Jenny. Thank you. Best, Rik
Oh nice❤gonna make this tomorrow. Thx for the lovely recipe❤👋🇫🇮
Thank you. Best, Rik
I believe coconut aminos would work well. Similar to soy sauce but less salty and sweeter, vegetarian/vegan!
Sounds amazing! Thank you. Best, Rik
Healthy
ish! Best, Rik
@BackyardChef it's salad 🥗 not a chip in sight rik it's healthy lol
Hi Ric, really fancy a donna kebab, take-away style but home made. Have you ever done this...? All the best, Tricia and Neil......
There is one on the channel. Thank you. Best, Rik
Hi Rik, well this dish is happening, love a salad, been making some of your Thai salads, delicious. Hit the 100k mark I see, Yorkshire lad done proud, congrats. Mr's is Hungarian she said how about goulash Redcar steve
Thank you very much. Appreciated. Best, Rik
Lovely looking salad, will be doing this Rik Well done on the done on the delivery (10000+ subs ?)
Thank you. Best, Rik
Just noticed what I had wrote, really sorry Rik, predictive text wants to keep putting Ray in there. Bloody computers honestly. Thanks for keep giving me ideas for dinner.
Rik what make is the pan you use, it looks really good.
It is a good heavy bottom. Made by a company called Kassa. Thank you. Best, Rik
Hi Rick, well done on your huge milestone, much deserved👏🏻. A quick note regarding Worcestershire sauce, you can buy a vegetarian version (without anchovies) it’s called Henderson relish, I buy mine in Lidl and I can’t taste the difference at all. I’ve been looking all over for a straight forward Caesar salad sauce, now I’ve found it…thank you, will be making this soon. Can the left over sauce be frozen? Take care, Gill X
Yes it can indeed! Thank you very much. Appreciated. Best, Rik
Great salad recipe. Light, fresh and so easy. Definitely will be a summer favorite!
Yes its an easy tasty one. Thank you. Best, Rik
Thanks for the reminder. I want to try one with some horseradish in the dressing. As I am a bachelar I can get away with it.
Sounds good! Best, Rik
Lovely, but sorry like the anchovie raw egg version. Guess if your going to eat it right away cutting the lettice rarther than tearing will work. Keep up the good work 200k soon.
Light years away, Derrick. Thank you. Best, Rik
Mate it’s called lea and perrins not wuster sauce 😂 much love ty for the recipes
Ha ha ha. Thank you. Best, Rik
Never tried anchovies. Never want to.
Acquired taste indeed! Thank you. Best, Rik
Congratulations on the 100000 subscribers reached! There is no such thing as Parmesan cheese it is either Parmigiano Reggiano or it’s a fake! ❤
Thank you. Good job I use that then, Lucky! Best, Rik
No anchovies?
No - Worcestershire sauce contains anchovies and there is no mayo either. Feel free to chuck some in. Best, Rik
Duh, I can be sooo slow. I knew anchovies are in Worcestershire sauce (I just can't spell it).
Having a huge salad this evening. Thanks for the suggestion! Croutons look fabulous! I can’t wait to make them . Ps. I have a favorite to ask you … is there any way one day you’ll make spotted dick? My late mother in law use to make it. I’ll tell you it’s been a good 30 years since we all have had it. I never learned or even have her recipe . Hey, the grands might even enjoy it too.
Thanks Rik.
All the best to you
Thank you. Best, Rik
SALAD!!! This channel is going down hill😂😂
Ha ha ha. Thank you very much. Best, Rik
What?? No anchovies
NO. Thank you. Best, Rik
