Salad Base

Buttermilk Dressing

Method

Preparing Salad

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the bacon is cooking, wash the iceberg lettuce and cut it into quarters. Rinse the tomatoes and cut them into wedges. Peel the cucumber and slice it into rounds.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    On a serving plate, place one quarter of iceberg lettuce. Top with a generous amount of tomato wedges, cucumber slices, and crumbled bacon. Sprinkle the bleu cheese over the top.

Making Buttermilk Dressing

  1. 4

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the buttermilk, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

  2. 5

    Serve with Salad

    Drizzle the buttermilk dressing generously over the assembled salad. Serve immediately.
