Our Disclaimer (The serious stuff)

By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

Spoonacular is not responsible for any adverse effects or damages that occur because of your use of the website or any information it provides (e.g. after cooking/consuming a recipe on spoonacular.com or on any of the sites we link to, after reading information from articles or shared via social media, etc.)

Forget going out to eat or ordering takeout every time you crave American food. Try making Chicken Caesar Salad at home. This recipe makes 2 servings with 293 calories, 31g of protein, and 16g of fat each. For $1.4 per serving, this recipe covers 24% of your daily requirements of vitamins and minerals. It is brought to you by spoonacular user robebryant. It works best as a main course, and is done in roughly 45 minutes. A mixture of olives, celery, chicken, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so flavorful. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free diet. Try Chicken Caesar Salad with Garlic Croutons {and Light Caesar Dressing}, Chicken Caesar Salad with Garlic Croutons {and Light Caesar Dressing}, and Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad with Light Caesar Dressing for similar recipes.

Chicken Caesar Salad works really well with Pinot Grigio, Albarino, and Gavi. We recommend a crisp, dry white wine such as a Gavi, Albariño, or Pinot Grigio. These wines stand up to the pungent dressing and complement the other flavors. The Albertina Gold Medal Winner Quentin's Reserve Pinot Grigio Wine with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.

Albertina Gold Medal Winner Quentin's Reserve Pinot Grigio Wine

Best when served cold. A delicious wine that has flavors of apple, pear and melon. Floral aromas of orange blossoms.
