Sensation Salad Dressing
Sensation Salad Dressing is a classic Louisiana recipe (as is the Sensation Salad--if you want to try that out, check the recipe notes!). Bright and lemony, it's a garlicky vinaigrette loaded with Romano cheese and freshly cracked black pepper that's not quite Italian or Caesar. Toss your favorite greens in it or use it as a marinade for chicken or shrimp!

To Make Traditional Sensation Salad:
This salad dressing is incredible on your favorite greens, but if you want to make a traditional Louisiana Sensation salad, simply toss some Romaine lettuce, freshly chopped parsley, and Sensation dressing together.
