Blue Cheese Dressing

This dressing is amazing! It's especially good served over a wedge of Iceberg lettuce with tomatoes, it tastes just like Lone Star's Signature Lettuce Wedge Salad! This recipe is definitely a make again keeper!
So, we've had our cat for 4 weeks now. She has been such a great addition to our family, she is so sweet and easy to take care of. We ironically saw a mouse the same week we got our cat. The mouse has reappeared a couple times since then and our cat is scared of the mouse! So my only complaint about our cat is that I wish she would have the guts to go catch it, I want that mouse out of my house!

Ingredients
1/4 cup mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip, it has to be mayonnaise)
1/4 cup buttermilk (I use lowfat)
1/4 cup sour cream (I use light)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup-1/2 cup Blue Cheese crumbles

Directions
Whisk everything but the Blue Cheese crumbles together in a bowl. When everything is well combined stir in the Blue Cheese crumbles. Store covered in the refrigerator.

Carrie,

Love this wedge of lettuce, with blue cheese, we used to serve this at a restaurant I worked at. The dressing I will surely make, sounds delicious!!! Bottled Blue cheese dressing is not the same as we used to serve in the restaurant, which was fantastic. I think your recipe may be very good. Thanks,,,

Carrie!

The King of Blue Cheese Dressing, your Dad, said the dressing was "Fantastic!" I couldn't believe how easy it was to make. I had no idea you could buy buttermilk in little half pint cartons! I just learn something new everyday! Mom

I used to work at a wing house and we added port wine to our blue cheese and it made it the best in town! we always made huge batches so imnot sure how much, but worth trying!!

I'd suggest a bit of acid addition: I use white wine vinegar and/or fresh squeezed lemon juice. You don't need to wonder how much, it's to taste... (start with a teaspoon and go from there)

Nothing to do with the dressing, but snipping a few chives to toss over wedgie salads works well. Fresh though, not dried.

This won't really have success, I consider like this.
