Look for packaged hearts of romaine with the bags of prewashed salad greens in your supermarket's produce section. If available, use multicolored teardrop tomatoes for a beautiful peak-of-summer presentation. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots |
3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese |
2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise |
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons water |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 romaine lettuce hearts, cut in half lengthwise (about 12 ounces) |
cooking spray |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved |
Directions:
1. Prepare grill to medium-high heat. 2. Combine first 6 ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Cover and chill. 3. Coat lettuce on all sides with cooking spray; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place lettuce, cut side down, on grill rack; grill 2 minutes. Remove lettuce from grill; let stand 5 minutes. 4. Place 1 lettuce half on each of 4 salad plates. Top each serving with 1/4 cup tomatoes. Drizzle each serving with 1 tablespoon dressing. Serve immediately. |
