This is a simple and fantastic retro-diner salad that is based on a recipe from the January 2003 issue of Bon Appetit magazine. Another rare recipe that my picky DH actually likes! I often serve this to compliment one of his BBQ's, and sometimes add tomato wedges, especially if I have some that are garden fresh. Ingredients:
1 cup mayonnaise |
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup) |
1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt |
1/4 cup buttermilk |
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar |
fresh ground black pepper |
2 heads iceberg lettuce, each cut into quarters |
2 green onions, chopped |
Directions:
1. In medium bowl, whisk together mayo, 1/2 cup of the blue cheese, yogurt, buttermilk, and vinegar until nearly smooth. 2. Mix in remaining blue cheese. 3. Season with black pepper. 4. (Dressing can be made 1 week ahead and stored in refrigerator). 5. Arrange lettuce wedges on 8 plates. 6. Spoon dressing over wedges. 7. Sprinkle with green onions and season with additional black pepper. |
