Jump to RecipeHow To Make Wedge Salad:
Honestly, the hardest part is hard boiling the eggs…which I normally do the day before I want to use them simply because I don’t like trying to peel eggs that aren’t completely cold (it hurts my fingers and I end up making a mess of the egg).
You could also mix up the ingredients for the salad the day before as well. Then on serving day, all you’d need to do is watch and cut the lettuce and chop the celery and avocados.
It doesn’t get much easier than that!
Wedge Salad
A light and easy salad that makes a perfect apptizer.
Ingredients
Dressing:
- 2 tablespoons avocado mayonnaise
- 2 ounces blue cheese crumbles
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons full fat sour cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- sea salt & black pepper to taste
- 2-3 tablespoons half and half optional
Salad:
- 1 large head of iceberg lettuce cut into 6 wedges
- 2 large avocados diced
- 3 strip sugar free bacon crisp and crumbled
- 3 hardboiled eggs peeled and chopped
- 1 large celery stalk chopped
- sea salt & black pepper to taste
Instructions
-
To make the blue cheese dressing, combine the avocado mayonnaise, blue cheese, Greek yogurt, sour cream, and garlic salt in a medium glass or other non-reactive bowl. Stir enough half & half into the blue cheese mixture to reach the desired consistency. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

When ready to serve, place each wedge of iceberg lettuce onto individual chilled serving plates. Drizzle each wedge with some homemade blue cheese dressing, and then top each with an equal amount of avocado, crumbled bacon, chopped hard-boiled eggs, and chopped celery. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Every cook needs a few basic tools. We use a bamboo cutting board, a chef knife, Pyrex measuring cups, and stainless steel mixing bowls. Once you’ve got good quality essentials in place you’ll be set from now on. We’re still using the items we got when we got married (back in the dark ages!)
