What causes the difference

The portion size is the same, but the ingredients and preparation differ.

Dressing: Olive oil → Caesar dressing
  • The vegetables are identical on both sides and they are very low in calories — lettuce, tomato and cucumber together barely reach 20 kcal per 100 g.
  • In a leaf salad the dressing is the only concentrated-calorie ingredient, so one choice sets the whole bowl: a thin drizzle of olive oil versus a heavy pour of creamy Caesar.
  • The real reference examples show the same spread — an undressed Greek runs ~44 kcal per 100 g while a dressed Caesar runs ~155.
