Ingredients

  1. 1 cup crumbled blue cheese
  2. 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  3. 1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt or sour cream
  4. 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  5. 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

  7. Buttermilk or water, for thinning, optional
  8. 1 head iceberg lettuce, cored and cut into 4 wedges
  9. 8 cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  10. 4 strips crispy cooked bacon

Instructions

  1. Mash up 1/2 cup of the blue cheese in a bowl until smooth; add the mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon juice and Dijon mustard and mix until combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If the dressing is too thick for your taste, add a bit of buttermilk or water to thin down. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Lay the iceberg wedges on a platter or one on each individual plate.
  3. Top with a generous drizzle of dressing, then sprinkle with the cherry tomatoes and the remaining 1/2 cup blue cheese. Top each with strip of crispy bacon.
