Grilled Avocado and Romaine Caesar

Add all ingredients for the caesar dressing to a jar or small bowl. Whisk or shake with the lid on until emulsified and smooth.Grill the Vegetables
Once the grill is hot, oil the green onions and avocado halves. Grill the green onions and the avocados, cut side down, until browned and tender, about 3-5 minutes. Cut the romaine heads in half lengthwise, keeping the end core intact, and oil the cut side. Place cut side down on the grill and grill briefly until browned, about 2 minutes.Plate the Salad
Place each romaine head half on a serving plate. Cut each avocado half in half again so you have 4 wedges, then place on each of the 4 serving plates. Place a green onion on each plate, roughly chopping first if desired. Add some shaved parmesan to each plate.Add Dressing & Serve
Drizzle the caesar dressing on top each plate. Serve with a fork and knife and enjoy immediately!
