About Recipe

If there is a wedge salad on a menu, you can almost guarantee that I’m going to order it. But I’m not ordering it because I’m looking for a salad. Nope, I’m ordering it for all those delicious toppings. I mean, let’s be honest, does anyone really order anything with iceberg lettuce with the thought that they’re actually getting a serving of vegetables?! Because, real talk, ain’t nobody getting nutrients out of water disguised as some wilted, icy, green stuff. Speaking of, who else thinks it’s time for that faux-lettuce to (as Luda so appropriately, sort of, says) “move ‘burg, get outta the way, get outta the way” of the yummy wedge salad toppings? *Raises Hand* If you’re raising your hand, too, then this recipe is for you. It’s all the deliciousness of a wedge salad but with a few twists that elevate it to a whole new flavor level. Gone are the iceberg lettuce days. This wedge salad is made using butter lettuce, which, if you’ve never had it, tastes creamy and buttery (bet you didn’t guess that one at all!), and is then topped with heirloom tomatoes, crispy thick cut bacon, some fresh herbs and a simple homemade bacon blue cheese dressing. Suffice it to say, there is a new wedge salad in town and it is not messing around.
