Thanksgiving Leftover Turkey Caesar Salad

• 1 head romaine lettuce, washed and well drained, any bad spots removed
• 2 -3 cups cold diced or shredded cooked turkey
• 1/4 - 1/2 cup bottled caesar salad dressing (Use a strong, rich, garlicky brand to hold up to the turkey( I prefer Brianna's Asiago Caesar)
• 1/2 cup large-cut garlic and cheese flavored croutons, I prefer T. Marzetti's or 1/2 cup prepared stuffing, crumbled and toasted until dry and crunchy
• 1/4 cup dried sweetened cranberries (optional)
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (optional)
• salt and pepper (optional)

1. Holding head of lettuce firmly together, slice across the head every 1/2 inch to get nice slices of lettuce. Stop when you get to the tough bottom part. Discard bottom and put sliced lettuce in large bowl.
2. Toss with diced or shredded turkey.
3. Add dressing and toss well to coat.
4. Sprinkle with croutons or toasted dressing bits and cranberries, if desired. Toss again.
5. Add cheese, if desired.
6. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately.
