Description

I love wedges. Shoes and salads alike.

Restaurant-style wedge salads can be loaded with fat, thanks to the dressing, cheese and bacon. This is a health-ified (not perfect, but better) version that is not lacking on flavor.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE DRESSING:
  • ½ cups Low-fat Buttermilk
  • ½ cups Low Fat Sour Cream
  • 1 clove Garlic. Pressed And Finely Minced
  • 3 ounces, weight Gorgonzola (or Blue) Cheese, Crumbled
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Finely Ground Black Pepper
  • FOR THE SALAD:
  • 2 ounces, weight Extra Lean Ham, Sliced Thin, Cut Into Half Inch Strips
  • 2 whole Hearts Of Romaine Lettuce
  • 1 cup Chopped Tomato
  • Fresh Ground Black Pepper, For Garnish

Preparation

Combine all dressing ingredients in a bowl. Place in the refrigerator to chill for 20 minutes.

Add ham to a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and saute until warm.

Cut stems off the Romaine hearts and place on a platter. Spoon dressing over wedges, then sprinkle on chopped tomato and heated ham strips. Garnish with fresh ground black pepper. Cut each wedge in half if serving as a side or starter.
