What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? The Daily Special: Wayward Wedge Salad! I get so excited when I come across bleu cheese at the Farmers Market! Recently, I was fortunate enough to lay my hands on a nice creamy chunk of Amish Bleu Cheese. And rather than nibble the entire portion away, I thought I better do something healthy with it. Does anyone else struggle with an internal tug-of war?
WEDGE SALAD
Ingredients:
1 head iceberg lettuce
6 slices bacon, precooked
2 eggs, hard cooked and chopped
Blue cheese crumbles
Blue cheese dressing
2 Campari tomatoes on the vine, quartered
Instructions:
Chill 4 salad plates in refrigerator. Cook bacon until crisp; let cool and crumble. Set aside. Quarter and core lettuce. Place one wedge on each chilled plate. Top with dressing, bacon, tomatoes, and chopped egg. Garnish with cheese crumbles. Serve immediately.
I like a good wedge salad. It’s like eating a steak in veggie form.

Great idea! We try to have lunch our kids pick a new fruit or veggie whenever we go to the store but this is a great idea too!

I like that you involve your children in meal-planning, especially from the colorful foods in the produce department. Well done. π¦
