Ingredients
- 1 head Iceberg lettuce
- 4 hardboiled eggs

- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup ranch dressing
Instructions
- Rinse head of lettuce with cold water, cut in half, and then cut each half in half. Place each wedge on a rimmed plate.
- Make hardboiled eggs: add eggs to a saucepan and cover with water. Place on stove and turn heat to high, once the water begins to boil, turn off the heat, put lid on pan, and set timer for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, add cooked eggs to a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes. Then peel and cut into pieces and pour over top of lettuce wedge.
- Cut 4 slices of cooked bacon into small bits, or use store-bought bacon bits, and pour over lettuce wedge.
- Sprinkle cheddar cheese over lettuce wedge.
- Drizzle ranch dressing over salad and serve!
Notes
- Confirm that the bacon, cheese, and ranch dressing are labeled gluten free when necessary.
- To make the salad dairy free, omit the cheddar or use dairy-free cheese and substitute dairy-free ranch dressing.
- For the crispest salad, keep the lettuce refrigerated until you are ready to assemble and serve it.
