Bleu Cheese Dressing
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup crumbled bleu cheese
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 head iceberg lettuce
1 cup crumbled bleu cheese
1 cup diced tomato (1 large tomato)
6 strips bacon (cooked & crumbled)
Use an electric mixer to combine all ingredients for bleu cheese dressing in a medium bowl.
Slice a head of iceberg lettuce into quarters through the stem end. Cut the stem off of the wedges and arrange each one on a plate.
Spoon about 1/4 cup of bleu cheese dressing over each lettuce wedge.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of crumbled bleu cheese over the dressing.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of diced tomato over the top.
Sprinkle ~1.5 strips of crumbled bacon over the top and serve.
Why waste time chopping up the lettuce when you can just hack a head of iceberg into four cool wedges, then dress it up and serve? This unique presentation is not only easy to make, but is also a deliciously different way to serve your next salad. The creamy bleu cheese dressing is a breeze to craft from scratch and tastes much better than anything you'll buy in a store. Add a bit of extra crumbled bleu over the top, some freshly diced tomatoes, and you're well on your way to a fancy-pants side salad that'll surely impress.
