The classic iceberg wedge salad is easy to make and a definite crowd pleaser. I took inspiration from The Homesick Texan’s Family Table cookbook and made mine with hearty amount of bacon and blue cheese as well as smoked paprika in the dressing to help punch up the smokiness of the bacon. Feel free to cut back or omit the cheese if you’re not a fan but as I said before, I’m a maximalist when it comes to food. More is more in my book when it comes to this salad!
