I knew I liked that guy! ;)

They make a really wonderful one at a local Supper Club that we go to on special occasions. Iceberg wedge, CHUNKY Blue Cheese dressing and crumbled BACON.

What’s not to love about that? Low in calories and hits ALL the flavor notes!

Grocery run, tomorrow. Iceberg is on the list! :)

The iceberg wedge salad earliest printed recipe appeared in a 1916 cookbook. By the 1920s, restaurants began serving versions of the salad, and in the 1950s, it became a steakhouse staple, made with iceberg lettuce, blue cheese dressing, and bacon.

One famous restaurant family, the Tuccis, claims their grandfather, Oscar, created a version in the 1930s at a legendary restaurant called Delmonico’s, later renamed “Oscar’s Wedge” in 1955.
