½ cup Caesar dressing (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley or chives, for garnish (optional)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.

Notes
- For added crunch, top with crushed croutons or breadcrumbs in the last 10 minutes of baking.
- Use a mandoline for even, thin slices.
- Caesar dressing adds saltiness — adjust added salt accordingly.
