Lettuce Boats With Bleu Cheese and Bacon

"This is the most simple yet elegant and fanciful way to serve a salad, no chopping or tearing the leaves, and it just looks so cool plated up. It's really fun to see folks 'WOW' the looks of such a simple salad. This one never goes unnoticed."

  1. This recipe is so easy to fix & has a lovely presentation. Mostly for the latter reason, I served it as the salad course of a dinner party Sat nite w/a mini-tartlet made from Recipe #258622 but there were other reasons. Icelanders serve salads dry, I about choke getting them down + DH likes only blue cheese salad dressing ~ so this recipe fit all my needs. It was well-received & I am pleased to have struck another blow in the fight against *naked salads* in Iceland. Thx for adding this *weapon* to my arsenal. :-) *Edited to Add* My presentation differed from the recipe as iceberg lettuce is often difficult to get here & this was 1 of those times.
