Salad Base

Method

Preparation of Salad Base

  1. 1

    Prepare the Iceberg Lettuce

    Remove any damaged outer leaves from the iceberg lettuce. Carefully cut the head of lettuce into quarters to form wedges. Rinse each wedge under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel.

Making Ranch Dressing

  1. 2

    Combine Ingredients for Dressing

    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, chopped chives, and lemon juice. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.

  2. 3

    Chill the Dressing

    Cover the dressing with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 4

    Dress the Wedges

    Place each wedge of iceberg lettuce on a serving plate. Generously drizzle the ranch dressing over each wedge, ensuring they are well coated.

  2. 5

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the crumbled gorgonzola cheese over the dressed wedges. Then, add the thinly sliced red onion, croutons, halved kalamata olives, and diced tomato on top of each wedge.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a refreshing salad or side dish.
