Description
Inspired by classic steakhouse sides, this crisp iceberg salad is coated in a creamy gorgonzola dressing that’s rich, tangy, and full of flavor. It’s quick to prepare and perfect alongside grilled meats or on its own.
Ingredients
- 1 large head iceberg lettuce, chopped
For the dressing
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 4 oz gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp white pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together buttermilk, mayonnaise, gorgonzola, garlic powder, onion powder, white pepper, and salt until creamy and well combined.
- Add chopped iceberg lettuce to a large bowl. Pour dressing over just before serving and toss until evenly coated.
- Serve immediately for best crunch and freshness.
Notes
- For added crunch, top with croutons or sliced red onion.
- Swap gorgonzola for blue cheese or feta for a flavor twist.
