Creamy Caesar Salad Dressing

This recipe uses a great cheat for the anchovies, Worcestershire sauce.  It's so simple to make, and no questionable egg yolks or tedious whipping to deter novice salad dressing makers.

1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup Mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons milk
1 Tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste

Blend first 4 ingredients.  Whisk in milk (I totally just use a fork).  Stir in remaining ingredients.  Makes 1/2 cup of dressing.  Enough for 4 big salads or 8 side salads.

My favorite is to top the dressed greens with chopped roasted almonds and more Parmesan cheese, add chicken to make it a meal, and chopped green onions for even more flavor.
