Ingredients

1 head cold iceberg lettuce (9 ounces)

¾ cup plain yogurt

3 ounces (¾ cup) blue cheese, like Stilton, crumbled and divided

1 garlic clove, minced

1 teaspoon red wine vinegar

Salt and pepper, to taste

10 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved

4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled into ½-inch pieces

 

Directions

Meanwhile, whisk yogurt, ½ cup of the blue cheese, garlic, vinegar, and salt and pepper together in bowl to make the dressing.

Arrange lettuce wedges on 4 plates and drizzle each with dressing. Top with tomatoes, bacon and remaining ¼ cup crumbled blue cheese. Serve immediately.
