Ingredients
For the croutons:
• 2-3 cups hearty bread, such as baguette, torn into bite-sized pieces
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
For the salad:
• 1 head romaine lettuce, cut into bite-sized pieces

Step 2
Place the bread pieces onto a baking tray.
Step 3
Drizzle the bread pieces with the olive oil.
Step 4
Sprinkle the bread with the garlic powder and salt, mixing it well to evenly coat all of the bread.
Step 5
Bake the bread until it is golden brown and crispy, about 15-20 minutes. Mix the bread once or twice while they bake to make sure that the bread does not burn.
Step 6
Let the croutons cool.

Add the lettuce to a large mixing bowl with the salad dressing, mixing it to coat the lettuce evenly with the salad dressing.
Step 8
Sprinkle the top of the salad with the shaved parmesan cheese and the croutons to serve.
