Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Iceberg lettuce
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 4 slices Bacon
- 1 cup Blue cheese dressing
- 0.33 cup Blue cheese crumbles
- 2 tablespoons Chives
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8–10 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, then crumble into small pieces once cool.
2. While the bacon is cooking, prepare the lettuce. Remove any wilted outer leaves from the iceberg lettuce head. Cut it into quarters, creating 4 wedge-shaped pieces. Trim the stem slightly if needed to help the wedges sit flat.
3. Wash and dry the cherry tomatoes, then slice them in half.
4. Arrange each lettuce wedge on a serving plate. Drizzle 1/4 cup of blue cheese dressing over each wedge, allowing it to cascade down the sides.
5. Sprinkle the halved cherry tomatoes and crumbled bacon evenly over each lettuce wedge.
6. Top each wedge with blue cheese crumbles for extra flavor and creaminess.
7. Garnish with finely chopped chives, a pinch of salt, and a few grinds of black pepper for added brightness.
8. Serve immediately with a steak knife and fork for easy cutting and enjoyment.
