Wedge Salad

INGREDIENTS
For the Salad:
- 1 head iceberg lettuce, thoroughly washed
- 1/2 pound bacon, cooked, cooled, and crumbled
- 1-1/2 cups diced tomatoes
- Blue cheese crumbles, for garnish
- Other optional toppings include: diced red onion, chopped chives, diced avocado, diced cucumber, sliced olives, fried onions, or homemade croutons (see Garlic Butter Croutons recipe).
For Dressing:
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons buttermilk
- 3 teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
- 4 ounces blue cheese, or to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the dressing ingredients, mixing well to combine. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
- Cut the head of lettuce in half. Cut each half into either halves again, or thirds, depending on the size of the lettuce, to create wedges.
- Line wedges onto a large serving platter, or plate wedges individually. Spoon dressing over the wedges and sprinkle with the bacon, tomatoes, blue cheese, and any of the optional toppings you like.
- Season with freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
