What’s your go to summer meal? Mine is something grilled atop a big Caesar salad. In my humble opinion, it’s the Caesar dressing (the raw egg yolk in particular) that gives this meal it’s richness and swagger! Although I have never been squeamish about eating raw eggs, I have been concerned about the risk of Salmonella. Not any more. I use Davidson’s Safest Choice Eggs because the natural pasteurization process uses a warm water bath that eliminates the risk of Salmonella in eggs, but does not change the taste or nutritional value. So I can add raw eggs to smoothies and salad dressings; whip up a no cook mousse; and gently cook scrambled and poached eggs– all with peace of mind.
So you see, SafeEggs are versatile. And so is my classic Caesar salad; today I’m adapting it to something new and different (but keeping the richness and swagger). That’s how this was born…
Just the sight of this meal says hello summer. It boasts the flavor and goodness of a traditional Caesar salad, but with an Asian flare in only 390 calories and a healthy 37 grams of protein. The nutritional value is light & lean, and the taste is BIG and flavorful!

Family and friends could be the best resource in accomplishing your goal.
There are numerous cleansing the colon products currently on the
market which are very efficient, but for my money, when selecting which product to
work with, I would look to make use of one that’s made up
of 100% natural ingredients. Drink Water– The only liquid you need to drink

I lost about 15 pounds in the first five to six weeks of my
new exercise and dieting plan. I won’t pry them out of the hands of
an preschooler with the park. Many everyone has way too short of
the attitude and suppose that all they should do is exercises for
a couple of months and they’re going to contain the great body throughout their life.

That dressing sounds amazing! Love the twist on a classic Caesar! I don’t eat shrimp, but I imagine that salad would be just as good with some grilled salmon!
