Dill Pickle Green Goddess Wedge Salad

Yields 3-4 servings

Wedge salads are so underrated! But although we feel this way about them, we do think that there’s a proper way to assemble them. It’s important that the wedges are not too large, otherwise you end up chomping on a big chunk of iceberg, and that’s no fun. The dressing has to be runny enough to get into the wedge crevices, but thick enough to cling onto the leaves. We’ve decided to use a creamy base with the remaining dressing spooned on top to get maximum coverage. Then to finish it off, it needs a little crunchiness, and while most salads use croutons, we used our Herby Za’atar Lil Croutons which works way better for a wedge salad.
