Instead of serving a typical green salad for your Christmas meal, surprise your dinner guests with a scintillating Caesar salad. You can even add some flair to your get-together by preparing your Caesar salad classic-style — tossing it tableside. Even though a Caesar is a very simple salad to make, it effortlessly adds panache to your holiday dinner parties – especially when you create it right in front of your guests.
