Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove them from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Lettuce

    While the bacon is cooking, take the head of iceberg lettuce and remove any wilted outer leaves. Cut the head into quarters and rinse each wedge under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels.

  3. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    Dice the tomatoes into bite-sized pieces and thinly slice the scallions (both the white and green parts).

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Wedge

    On a serving plate, place one wedge of iceberg lettuce. Top it with diced tomatoes, crumbled bacon, and sliced scallions.

  2. 5

    Add Dressing

    Drizzle a generous amount of blue cheese dressing over the top of the wedge. Optionally, you can add additional crumbled blue cheese on top for extra flavor.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Repeat the process for the remaining wedges and serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of cracked black pepper if desired.
