Ingredients
| Dressing | ||
| 1/3 | cup | nonfat buttermilk |
| 3 | Tbsp. | nonfat mayonnaise |
| 2 | Tbsp. | fresh lemon juice |
| 1 | Tbsp. | water |
| 3 | tsp. | Dijon mustard |
| 1/2 | tsp. | Worcestershire sauce |
| 2 | anchovy filets, drained of oil, patted dry, mashed with a fork | |
| 1/8 | tsp. | kosher salt |
| 1/4 | tsp. | freshly ground black pepper |
| 1 | Tbsp. | olive oil |
| 2 | Tbsp. | grated fresh Parmesan cheese |
| Croutons | ||
| 2 | slices whole-grain bread | |

| 1/4 | tsp. | salt-free garlic and herb seasoning (such as Mrs. Dash) |
| 4 | cups | torn romaine lettuce hearts (about 1/3 lb. total) |

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, mayonnaise, lemon juice, water, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, anchovies, salt, and pepper. Slowly pour a thin stream of olive oil into the dressing mixture and whisk to emulsify. Fold in the Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
- Cut the bread into 1/2-inch cubes. Add to a medium bowl, and coat lightly with the cooking spray and garlic and herb seasoning. Place the bread cubes on a baking sheet in one layer. Bake the bread cubes for about 10 minutes, tossing them halfway through, until they are golden brown.
- Add the dressing and lettuce to a large salad bowl and toss. Add the croutons and grated Parmesan cheese, toss gently, and serve.
