I added toasted pecans, raspberries and spring onions. And a handful of yellow raisins. I put some cheese directly in the salad, mixed some with the salad dressing. Yum.

Quick n wonderful. I prefer half the mustard and a whole garlic clove. A favorite.

This is exactly the simple, clean blue cheese dressing I was looking for. I wanted to serve it on a full, open head of bib lettuce, with a side of tomatoes. I wanted no creaminess. A great accompaniment for a prime piece of grilled halibut. This will be the go to.
