Sometimes you just want to tuck into a nice crispy salad ... this could fit the bill! It's a crisp salad with tangy blue cheese dressing, crumbled cheese and crunchy toasted walnuts - it can make a great accompaniment to steak - but obviously eat and enjoy it to your preference.
Ingredients:
Serves Two
50ml buttermilk
Ingredients:
Serves Two
50ml buttermilk
50g soured cream
50g mayonnaise
1 tsp lemon juice
75g blue cheese, crumbled
½ small pack chives, snipped
1 iceberg lettuce washed and quartered
25g walnuts, toasted and chopped
50g mayonnaise
1 tsp lemon juice
75g blue cheese, crumbled
½ small pack chives, snipped
1 iceberg lettuce washed and quartered
25g walnuts, toasted and chopped
Method:
1. Make the dressing in a medium-sized bowl by combining the buttermilk, soured cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice and 50g of the blue cheese. Season and stir through the chives. Chill until ready to serve.
2. When ready to serve, pour half the dressing over the lettuce wedges and crumble over the remaining blue cheese and a scattering of walnuts. Serve the rest of the dressing on the side.

A lovely vegetarian salad/dish which nutritionally per serving is:

I'm not a lover of blue cheese but I could definitely go for this with a substitute.
You are making me hungry. This looks so good and refreshing for this time of the year. Have a nice day.
Yum.
Hello, I would love this salad. Looks delicious.
Have a happy day!
Yes, sometimes the simpler salad like a lettuce wedge is just what is called for. I enjoy the crispness of it and in it's simplicity it doesn't over power the taste of whatever it is paired with. Have a great week!
Although that looks great and the dressing sounds wonderful, one of the things I don't care much for even in my salad is lettuce....funny huh?
Oh yummy!
Hope you're enjoying your stay in the lake district.
Mouthwatering... Thank you!!
Oh yes, sometimes that just hits the spot. : )
I like to snack on that blue. Sometimes I stuff large green olives with it.They make a Maytag Blue in Iowa that is a treat.
Hey Jan,
Just the tip of the iceberg with this recipe. I love blue cheese dressing!

I'd use a different dressing but this is a good idea.
Mmmm...this looks so good and just the perfect thing to enjoy on a hot summer day. Thank you for the recipe, dear Jan. I hope you are well!
Hugs!
Yummy! Thank you Jan!
I kind of prefer lettuce on sandwiches as opposed to a salad. Looks good though.
