Instructions

Thousand Island dressing

  1. To make the dressing, mix all the ingredients together.  Taste as you go to get the exact proportions the way you like them.  Refrigerate the dressing until you are ready to use it.  Make it ahead to give the flavors a chance to develop and mingle.

wedge salad

  1. For the salad, take a nice tight head of iceberg or bibb lettuce and cut it in quarters.  Cut out the core and put each wedge on a salad plate and spoon the Thousand Island dressing liberally on top.  Garnish with lots of crumbled bacon.
