I am excited to be reminded about grilling romaine. I love doing it and haven't for ages. And anything Wonderboy likes I like.
ReplyDeleteWho would think of grilling Romaine? That's amazing! You never cease to amaze me, Jenn! :-) But I'll have to admit that grilled anything is better than not grilling!
ReplyDeleteWe had several rounds of grilled romaine this summer then quit, but I really like it and your dressing sounds very good.
ReplyDeleteSounds wonderful - haven't ever grilled romaine - but this looks delicious and love the dressing :)

ReplyDeleteGrilling Romaine, sounds great. Definitely love the creaminess of the dressing. Thanks for sharing, Jenn!
ReplyDeleteI saw a recipe with grilled romaine over the summer and thought about trying it then. Thanks for the reminder! It sounds cool.
ReplyDeleteLove grilled romaine. Do mine a little different. I cut the romaine in half lengthwise. Brush with evoo and salt and pepper. Grill it till it gets some grill marks. Put on plate and add dried cranberries, walnuts or slivered almonds, red onion and feta cheese. I use a balsamic vinaigrette. This is so good.
ReplyDeleteI haven't grilled romaine in over a year! It sounds really good right about now, too. The dressing looks great, too. Chives in a creamy dressing, I'm sold :)
ReplyDeleteGrilled romaine (or Cos in the UK) lettuce is surprisingly delicious. The creamy chives dressing looks and sounds heavenly.
ReplyDeletePaula - thanks for that tip.. the salad sounds wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteI want that dressing! And look at you still grilling in November :) Do you use an indoor grill or are you cooking outdoors? If so I hope the weather is still nice there!
