Start by removing the outermost leaves of the iceberg lettuce head, then cut the head into four equal wedges.
Rinse each wedge under cold water to remove any dirt and pat dry with paper towels.
Place each wedge on a separate plate or a large serving platter.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in halves and sprinkle them evenly over the lettuce wedges.
Crumble the cooked bacon into small pieces and distribute them evenly over the wedges.
Drizzle the sugar-free blue cheese dressing over each lettuce wedge, ensuring even coverage.
Sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles on top of the dressed wedges.
Thinly slice the chives and sprinkle them over the top for a pop of color and flavor.
Season each wedge lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Serve immediately and enjoy as a refreshing, sugar-free appetizer or side dish.
