Chopped Wedge Salad: A Fresh Twist on a Classic Favorite

Salads are often seen as simple side dishes, but the Chopped Wedge Salad takes a classic wedge of iceberg lettuce and transforms it into a vibrant, flavorful meal. By chopping the wedge, every bite is infused with toppings, dressing, and texture, giving a modern twist to a timeless dish. Perfect for lunch, dinner, or a starter at a dinner party, this salad combines crisp greens, creamy dressing, crunchy bacon, and a burst of freshness from tomatoes and onions.

Ingredients

For this recipe, you will need:

For the Salad:

  • 1 large head of iceberg lettuce
  • 6-8 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
  • 3-4 strips of cooked bacon, crumbled
  • ¼ cup blue cheese crumbles (optional)
  • 1 avocado, diced (optional)

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons buttermilk (adjust for desired consistency)
