Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Wash the Boston Bibb lettuce thoroughly under cold water. Shake off excess water and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Onions

    Add the thinly sliced shallots (or red onions) to the bowl with the lettuce.

  3. 3

    Toast the Walnuts

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the walnuts for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  4. 4

    Prepare Gorgonzola Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper to taste until smooth.

  5. 5

    Combine Salad

    Add the toasted walnuts and remaining Gorgonzola cheese to the salad bowl. Drizzle the Gorgonzola vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a fresh salad side dish.
