Sheet Pan Wedge Salad Recipe with Taco Blue Cheese

August 6, 2017 By Jessica Leave a Comment

Don’t be afraid to pile on the goodies with this monster wedge salad recipe. Upgrading from side-dish to entree status, these iceberg wedges are piled high with homemade taco blue cheese dressing, bacon crumbles, sheet-pan vegetables and sausage.

Wedge Salad Recipe

This wedge salad recipe is an easy dinner that you can whip up in less than 30 minutes.

We serve ours with sliced baguette and garlic-herb butter, as it’s the perfect compliment. Do you have extra guests coming over for dinner? Easily double or triple this recipe to feed a crowd, it’s THAT EASY. If you want to step things up a notch, try topping this with my oven-roasted chickpeas.

Our Sunday supper will usually consist of a hodgepodge of pantry items and produce from that weekend’s haul at the farmers market. I will often revamp classic recipes and make them our own, and today’s feature is no different.

JESS NOTES:

  • If you don’t feel like mixing your own dressing, you can also use your favorite store bought brand and add the taco seasoning with lime juice. Just make sure to mix well before serving.
  • Not a fan of blue cheese dressing? Not a problem, simply substitute with your favorite balsamic vinaigrette.
  • For presentation, this salad is shown wedge style. When serving to your own family, it may be easier to chop the lettuce into smaller bite-sized pieces and mix all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
