Mediterranean Caesar Salad With Feta and Dill
Caesar Salad just got a serious Mediterranean inspired upgrade with the addition of Feta and dill.
Creamy Greek yogurt, sharp garlic and tangy feta cheese combine to make this smooth and delicious non-traditional Caesar dressing, which then gets dressed up with just the right amount of dill.
Did you know that on top of being Independence Day here in the states that July 4th is also National Caesar Salad Day?? I had no idea, but I definitely know which one I’ll actually be celebrating this year.
My love of Caesar Salad is well known among my friends and loved ones, and I’ve shared my favorite Caesar recipe here on the blog in the past, but celebrating National Cae Sal Day required me to mix things up a little bit, and bring you something new. Something that I am VERY excited about.
This Caesar dressing is definitely not your traditional Caesar, although it has elements of it. The base is a mixture of Feta cheese and Greek yogurt, which makes for a smooth and creamy dressing with just the right hints of sharpness from the garlic and umami from the anchovy (yup…that’s still here…it’s a Caesar after all).
With a few modifications, this would be a great recipe to bring along with you to a 4th of July BBQ this year!

I think you meant to say to sear the lettuce and not the dressing. :)
