Who doesn’t love good old iceberg lettuce salad? It’s the lettuce that I grew up with and ate just about every night with dinner download e mail in full. It seems to have a bad reputation of being low in nutrients, whic is not exactly true; it’s just simply lower in nutrients than some other types of lettuce ets2 multiplayer herunterladen. In recent years iceberg lettuce has been left out, having been deemed of having no nutritional value. It seems to get passed by for other more power-packed greens such as Kale, Romaine lettuce, or spinach provisionsverträge kostenlos downloaden. Many people, including my grown up kids, prefer the crispness of iceberg. I don’t think that any other lettuce has the same cool, enjoyable crunch powerpoint 2016 herunterladen. You shouldn’t rely on it as your sole source of leafy greens, but it’s OK to include it in your diet on a regular basis.
I’m often inspired to prepare dishes after watching various shows on the Food Network Channel lupo programm herunterladen. They provide variety and offer a nice variation of cuisine; depending on the Chef. Damaris Phillips is an American chef who won the ninth season of the Food Network television series Food Network Star download netflix app android. She’s a Kentucky native who “celebrates the relationship between food and love” on her show called “Southern at Heart” dating app downloaden. Sometimes she can be a bit annoying with her quirkiness, but I push through episodes of her show because most of the time I enjoy her simple and delicious recipes ringtones for whatsapp download for free. Bill and I both enjoy a nice wedge salad and I recently prepared this one based on ingredients that I had on hand.
Ingredients:
1 Head Iceberg Lettuce, halved or quartered with core removed
3/4 Cup Pecans, chopped and toasted
1/2 Cup Bacon, cooked crisp and chopped
1 Cup Grape Tomatoes, cut quartered
Dressing:
1 .75 oz handlettering font to. Package Creme Fraiche
1/4 Cup Buttermilk
1/4 Cup Sour Cream
1/4 Cup Basil Leaves, fresh chopped
1/4 Cup Parsley, fresh chopped
2 Tablespoons Chives, fresh chopped
1 Tablespoon Thyme, fresh chopped
1 Garlic Clove, pressed
1/2 Lemon, juiced plus rind
1/2 teaspoon Onion Oowder
1/2 Cup Blue Cheese, crumbled
Salt and Black Pepper, freshly ground
For the dressing: Combine the creme fraiche, sour cream and buttermilk with the basil, parsley, chives, thyme, garlic, lemon juice and onion powder with a whisk in a medium bowl bilder von pinteresten.
Fold in the blue cheese, season with salt and pepper and refrigerate until ready to serve.
For the wedge: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread the pecans on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until fragrant, six to eight minutes. Let cool and then chop. Divide the lettuce wedges among plates. Top each with dressing, the tomatoes, cooked, chopped bacon to taste and top with the toasted pecans. Serve the remaining dressing on the side.
I served the salad as a side dish to simple grilled shrimp that was coated with butter, olive oil, lemon juice and fresh garlic.
We paired this meal with a wonderful Rose from CHURCHILL’S Estate that we bought in Douro, Portugal at an extremely reasonable price!
Enjoy!
Cheers!
