| An absolutely fantastic salad that rivals my favorite restaurant versions! |
3 cups torn butter lettuce (or lettuce of your choice
1/4 cup homemade blue cheese salad dressing**
3 ounces cooked salad shrimp
1/8 cup crumbled blue cheese
2 slices chopped crisp bacon
freshly ground black pepper (optional)
Method:
Add the lettuce and blue cheese dressing to a medium bowl. Gently toss or stir with a bowl scraper to coat the lettuce leaves with the dressing. Transfer to a serving plate. Arrange the shrimp, cheese, onion and bacon on top of the lettuce. If desired, garnish with freshly ground black pepper. Makes 1 main course serving or 2 side salads.
**You can use store bought blue cheese dressing, but this homemade version only takes 5 minutes to prepare and tastes so much better! Click on the link below to see the recipe located on this blog: The BEST Keto Friendly Gourmet Blue Cheese Salad Dressing

Note: This is one of my favorite things to order when enjoying lunch or dinner at a nice restaurant. Typically, it is served with a wedge of iceberg lettuce, or sometimes on Romaine lettuce. I think that it is even better made with butter leaf lettuce! 😃
