From This dressing is so phenomenal you'll wonder why you ever bothered with store bought dressing. It's simple yet you feel like you're dining at an expensive restaurant. I don't normally have buttermilk, but a quick tip from Joy of Cooking I do regularly is to throw in a splash of vinegar to the milk (does the trick and you don't have to go buy buttermilk). I don't know if this recipe is a good copycat of Lonestar's, but I do know you'll scarf down your salad. Recipe from Top Secret Restaurant Recipes 2 by Todd Wilbur. Thank you Todd! Ingredients:
bleu cheese salad dressing |
3/4 cup mayonnaise |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
1/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled |

1/8 teaspoon onion powder |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 head iceberg lettuce |
1 cup blue cheese, crumbled |
1 cup tomato, diced (large) |
Directions:
1. Use an electric mixer to combine all ingredients for bleu cheese dressing in a medium bowl. 2. Slice a head of iceberg lettuce into quarters through the stem end. 3. Cut the stem off the wedges and arrange each one on a plate. 4. Spoon about 1/4 cup of bleu cheese dressing over each lettuce wedge. 5. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of crumbled bleu cheese over the dressing. 6. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of diced tomato over the top and serve. |
