The 'Berg's back! For a while it was almost embarrassing to even think of eating Iceberg lettuce?it was blacklisted as flavorless, colorless and watery. But Iceberg is an All-American favorite that doesn't deserve to be shelved. It's refreshing and crisp, and the 'rents are sure to love it because it's probably what they grew up on. And it's so simple! To serve, I just split a head of iceberg into wedges and top them with some homemade ranch dressing and fresh chopped chives. Nothing simpler. Nothing better.

Ingredients

Directions

Peel off any wilted or discolored leaves from the outside of the lettuce. Trim the core even with the bottom of the lettuce and cut the lettuce into quarters through the core. If the quarters look too big for a single serving, either cut them in half or trim them to whatever size you feel is a good serving.

 

Combine the sour cream, yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, vinegar, and chives in a bowl until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

 

To serve, set the wedge of iceberg in the center of a salad plate, spoon the dressing over and dash it with a good pinch of chives.

    This dressing is light and refreshing with a little zip from the white vinegar. I make this dressing often because it's so easy. I just served it tonight over a tossed salad. Instead of the chives, I added dill today. I thought it was better than the chives, so I'll add it again. If you have the ingredients on hand, try it. You might have to adjust the vinegar a little, as I did, to add a little more tang. I love almost every one of Dave's recipes that I've tried. So sorry he's gone fron FN.

    This is a quick and easy salad that also tastes very good. Although iceberg is not the healthiest of lettuces, the crispness of it makes it a pleasure to eat occasionally. I did add some sliced tomatoes to the side of the lettuce and drizzled the dressing over. I also used green onion tops instead of chives since that's what I had on hand. My whole family rated the salad highly.
