6 slices bacon
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 small head Boston or Bibb lettuce, torn into bite sized
pieces
1 head radicchio (about 1/2 pound), thinly sliced
1/2 cup gorgonzola cheese (about 2 ounces), crumbled
2 tablespoons Italian (flat leaf) parsley leaves
1. Cook bacon until crisp; transfer to a paper towel to
drain. Crumble bacon; set aside. In a large bowl whisk
together olive oil, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to
taste. Add Boston lettuce, radicchio, cheese and
parsley. Toss gently to coat. Transfer to plates; sprinkle
with bacon.
This hearty, beautiful salad is almost a meal in itself. Slightly
bitter radicchio pairs well with smoky bacon and tangy blue
cheese.
