Grape Caesar Salad with Chicken

My family loves salads of all kinds, but especially Caesar salad. This recipe is a variation of the traditional recipe with the addition of grapes and Swiss cheese for a wonderful new flavor twist. I keep it very simple by using my favorite bottled dressing and packaged Caesar croutons. Blessings...

Recipe:

1 head romaine lettuce
3 cups seedless grapes, halved (I prefer red or black grapes to green)
1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese
3 tbsps. grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups cubed cooked chicken
Caesar salad dressing
Caesar salad croutons

1. Tear lettuce into bite-sized pieces into salad bowl.
2. Add grapes of choice, cheeses, chicken, if using, and croutons; dress with Caesar dressing and toss.
    Taste and add more dressing if needed. Serve immediately

Yield: 6-8 servings as a side dish without the chicken
Yield: 4-5 servings as a main dish salad with chicken
