Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    Cook the applewood smoked bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and let cool on paper towels. Once cool, crumble into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Lettuce

    Remove any damaged outer leaves from the iceberg lettuce. Cut the head into quarters, creating wedge shapes. Rinse under cold water and pat dry gently with a paper towel.

  3. 3

    Slice the Onion

    Peel and thinly slice the red onion. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Wedge

    On a serving plate, place one wedge of iceberg lettuce. Drizzle with maytag bleu cheese dressing, then sprinkle crumbled bacon and bleu cheese crumbles on top. Add a few slices of red onion for garnish.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Repeat the assembly for each wedge, and serve immediately as a refreshing salad.
