• 2 teaspoons anchovy paste
• 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/4 cup thawed frozen egg product
• 1 medium-size lemon, juiced
• 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan

Instructions:

1. To make the dressing, blend together all the ingredients in a food processor or electric blender until it becomes smooth (or mix in a small bowl until it turns creamy); keep it aside.
