Ingredients:

Serving

3 oz french bread baguette, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 1/2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
cooking spray
2 oz parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1/4 cup organic canola mayonnaise (such as spectrum)
3 tbsp refrigerated pesto
4 tsp water
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp anchovy paste
1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp dijon mustard
1/8 tsp hot pepper sauce (such as tabasco)
1 garlic clove, minced
12 cups torn romaine lettuce

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°.
Place bread in a large bowl; drizzle with oil. Toss to coat. Arrange bread in a single layer on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400° for 10 minutes or until golden, turning once.
Grate 2 tablespoons cheese; shave remaining cheese to equal about 6 tablespoons. Set shaved cheese aside.
Combine grated cheese, mayonnaise, and next 8 ingredients (through garlic) in a medium bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Combine croutons and lettuce in a large bowl. Drizzle mayonnaise mixture over lettuce mixture; toss to coat.
Place 1 1/3 cups salad on each of 6 plates; top each serving with 1 tablespoon shaved cheese.
