Blue Cheese Wedge Salad



Ingredients:

  • 1/2 pound crumbled blue cheese
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 head iceberg lettuce, cut into 8 wedges
  • 2 roma tomatoes, diced
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 pound crumbled blue cheese
Directions:
  1. Combine 1/2 pound blue cheese, sour cream, buttermilk, mayonnaise, vinegar, olive oil, sugar, garlic, and pepper in a bowl; blend using a hand mixer; chill until serving.

  2. Build the salad by placing 1 lettuce wedge on each of 8 plates.

  3. Drizzle equal amounts of dressing over each wedge.

  4. Scatter tomatoes, onion, and 1/2 pound blue cheese over each salad.

I like wedge salads with french dressing & feta.
