Well, always was not today! But I did have a wedge of lovely blue cheese. I found a recipe online and thankfully had all the ingredients here at home.
I had already crumbled a good chunk of the cheese on each salad, so used a only half of the cheese in this recipe.
- 1 cup of Blue Cheese crumbled
- 1/2 c. sour cream
- 1/4 c. mayonnaise
- 1/2 c. buttermilk
- 2 T. lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 clove garlic, pressed
- 1/4 c. pepper
- dash of Worcestershire sauce
Use an immersion blender (or simply whisk the ingredients together.) Let sit if you'd like the dressing a bit thicker.
We always crumble Blue cheese and bacon, chop a ripe tomato and grate a hard-boiled egg on each salad. I also add other things I have on hand. This photo has sliced mini-peppers and chopped black olives on top of a mix of lettuces and spinach.
