ICEBERG WEDGE BLUE CHEESE BACON & TOMATO SALAD



Iceberg Wedge Blue Cheese Bacon & Tomato Salad image

I first tried a salad like this in a restaurant. I think my homemade version is much better. Hat's off to Luby for the outstanding recipe for Blue Cheese Dressing which is the only one I will eat now. I copied the recipe verbatim, and included all steps in making the dressing straight from Luby's recipe, #55514. This is my favorite salad in the summertime, reminds me of a BLT without the bread.

LAYERED BLUE CHEESE, BACON AND ICEBERG SALAD



Layered Blue Cheese, Bacon and Iceberg Salad image

What's better than a classic wedge? One that's stacked with all the usual suspects, plus some new friends. Carrots add just the right amount of color and root-veggie crunchiness. You can toss the salad with ranch or French dressing if you don't have blue cheese on hand.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 small red onion, cut into thin rings
6 strips bacon
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small head iceberg lettuce, cut into bite-size pieces
2 cups grape tomatoes, halved
1 cup pitted kalamata olives, roughly chopped
3 small carrots, cut into very thin rounds
2 cups croutons

Steps:

  • Soak the onions in ice water for at least 20 minutes. Strain.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until brown and crisp, 6 to 7 minutes per side. Remove, drain on paper towels and roughly chop.
  • Whisk together the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, Worcestershire, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Using a 3-quart straight-sided tall glass bowl for 1 large salad or four 16-ounce wide-mouth glass jars for 4 individual salads, make a layer with a third of the lettuce, then add the following in separate layers: the tomatoes, the olives, half the remaining lettuce, the carrots, the croutons, and the remaining lettuce. Sprinkle the top with the onions and bacon. (The salad can be put together, covered and refrigerated for up to 2 hours before serving.)
  • If making 1 salad, just before serving, transfer it to a large bowl, toss with about half the dressing and season with salt and pepper. If making 4 salads, add dressing to each jar, season with salt and pepper, cover with the lid and shake to coat. Serve the remaining dressing on the side.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 ounces smoked bacon, rind removed, cut into matchsticks (3/4 cup)

Yogurt and Lemon Dressing
Coarse, freshly ground black pepper

WEDGE SALADS WITH BACON AND BLUE CHEESE



Wedge Salads with Bacon and Blue Cheese image

We still order old-school wedge salads regularly when we eat out! The combo of cool crispy lettuce, smoky bacon and tangy blue cheese and tomatoes is kinda perfect. We wanted to do this dish one better by adding a hard-cooked egg for a little more protein and color.
