ICEBERG WEDGE BLUE CHEESE BACON & TOMATO SALAD



Iceberg Wedge Blue Cheese Bacon & Tomato Salad image

I first tried a salad like this in a restaurant. I think my homemade version is much better. Hat's off to Luby for the outstanding recipe for Blue Cheese Dressing which is the only one I will eat now. I copied the recipe verbatim, and included all steps in making the dressing straight from Luby's recipe, #55514. This is my favorite salad in the summertime, reminds me of a BLT without the bread.
