- 2 cups seedy whole grain bread, hand torn into pieces
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp pickled red onion

FOR THE DRESSING
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp garlic (grated)

Instructions
- add some oil to a skillet and add the torn pieces of bread to the skillet. Toast the croutons over medium heat until crisp and golden.
- Preheat your grill
- Meanwhile, cut your romaine in half and brush the cut side with olive oil. Once your grill is preheated, place the romaine cut-side down onto the grill grates. Use tongs to press the lettuce gently onto the grates. Grill for 2 to 3 mintues before turning. Repeat on the second side before transferring to a platter.
- Top grilled romaine with a little of the dressing, croutons, some pickled red onion, parmesan cheese shavings. Top with more dressing and lots of freshly ground black pepper.
