Blue Cheese Side Salad

 

Instead of enjoying stalks of celery alongside your wings, why not make it into a tasty salad. This will be cooling alongside any wings or spicy main dishes. Take this recipe a step further by toasting the croutons yourself.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, or plain yogurt
  • 2 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
  • 2 green onions, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice, or white wine vinegar
  • 1 pinch salt, to taste
  • 1 pinch black pepper, to taste
  • 4 cups lettuce
  • 4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot, big or a few small, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup croutons, homemade or store-bought, optional
