Ingredients
Scale
- 1 head of iceberg lettuce, sliced into quarters
- 1/2 cup diced cherry tomatoes
- 6 slices of bacon, diced
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup green onions, diced
Light Blue Cheese Dressing:
- 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 1 tablespoon 2% milk
- juice of 1 lemon
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Make the Dressing: To a small bowl add greek yogurt, blue cheese, milk, lemon juice, garlic clove, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined and set aside.
- Cook Bacon: To a medium skillet add diced bacon pieces. Saute for until bacon is browned, about 5-7 minutes. Pour bacon onto a paper towel-lined plate to soak up some grease.
- Cut Iceberg into Wedges: Remove the loose leaves off the outside of the head of lettuce.Place iceberg lettuce on a cutting board. Slice lettuce in half so you have two equals halves. Flay each half on the flat side and slice in half again, so you have quarters.
- Assemble Salads: Top each iceberg wedge blue cheese dressing, bacon, cherry tomatoes, red onion and green onions. Add more crumbled blue dressing if you’d like. (optional)
