Dr. Wray has been making these amazing Caesar salads with romaine lettuce and chopped cooked chicken tossed with this wonderful dressing. The anchovies pack a powerful nutrient punch as an excellent source of protein, rich in Omega-3s, and a good source of calcium, selenium and niacin. They are also low in mercury and other toxins.
