Cut leftover or cold pizza slices into cubes.
Place in the air fryer at 390F (200C) for 3-4 minutes. Alternatively, bake pieces in the oven on a parchment lined baking sheet at 425F (220C) for 5 minutes, or until melty and golden.
Thinly slice the romaine hearts, using my How to Shred Lettuce tutorial. Add to a bowl and set aside.
Add the dressing ingredients to a liquid measuring cup or jar. Combine until smooth using a stick blender or whisk.
Note: if the dressing is too thick, I like to thin it out with a touch of water or pickle juice brine. Olive brine or pepperoncini brine both work as well.
Toss the dressing with the shredded lettuce and croutons. Serve and enjoy!
