Grilled Romaine Salad

Ingredients

Dressing

1/4 cup sour cream

1/4 cup mayonnaise

2 oz blue cheese crumbled

1 tbsp parsley minced

1 tbsp lemon juice

salt and pepper to taste

Salad

1/2 lb Indiana Kitchen bacon

2 tbsp olive oil

3 heads romaine lettuce cut in half lengthwise

1 cup broccoli florets chopped

1/4 cup pecorino cheese grated

Instructions

1. Combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, blue cheese, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and stir until well blended and creamy. Add in a tablespoon or two of water to thin out the dressing. Use the back of a spoon to press some of the blue cheese crumbles into the dressing for even more flavor.

2. Preheat a grill or indoor grill pan to high. Add your bacon to a large skillet and cook until crispy. Set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

3. Brush the romaine with olive oil and place it cut-side down on the grill. Quickly sear until grill marks are visible and remove from grill.

4. Top each grilled romaine head with bacon, tomatoes, pecorino and blue cheese dressing. Enjoy!
