Usually Caesar salads can be quite high in syns, but here I have created a delicious low syn Chicken Caesar salad which uses your Healthy Extras to keep the syns down. It is completely homemade (even the dressing), so is fresh and tastes amazing.
This recipe is Slimming World (SP) and Weight Watchers friendly
