Spinach, Arugula, and Frisee Salad with Bleu Cheese Dressing, Fresh Tomatoes, and Crispy Bacon
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 small yellow onion, cut into small dice
- 2 cups sour cream
- 1 cup prepared mayonnaise
- 8 ounces bleu cheese, crumbled (recommended: Point Reyes)
- 2 tablespoons fresh sage, finely chopped
- 1/2 to 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach, washed and dried
- 1 cup fresh baby arugula, washed and dried
- 2 frisee hearts, washed and dried
- 1 cup seeded and small diced tomato
- 1 cup cooked crisp and diced bacon
- In a small saute pan, over medium heat, heat the oil and cook the onion until lightly browned.
- Lower the heat and cook until caramelized, about 10 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, blue cheese, and sage.
- If the dressing is too thick, loosen the dressing by pouring in a little more of the buttermilk.
- You want the dressing to be pourable.
- Season the dressing with salt, and pepper, to taste.
- Combine the spinach, arugula, frisee, tomato, and bacon in a large bowl and dress gently with a few spoonfuls of blue cheese dressing.
- Add more dressing to taste, but don't overdress the greens.
- Season the salad with salt, and pepper, to taste.
