- 2/3 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- Mix together the cooked bacon, chicken chunks, and hearts of palm round in a large bowl.
- Mix together the mayo, sour cream, milk, lemon juice, and salt in a blender for about 30 seconds.
- Add blue cheese to the dressing and pulse just a few seconds- so there are still some chunks.
- Toss with chicken mixture, cover and chill several hours.
- Set lettuce leaves onto 6 serving plates (about 2 large leaves a plate- or whatever you need to cover the plate attractively).
- Place a mound of the chicken mixture on top of the lettuce.
- Set tomato wedges around the chicken mound in a spiral pattern.
- Garnish with black olives.
