Fresh, colorful, and easy, this is an updated and tastier version of the classic wedge salad.

Why Try? Using ranch dressing as a base, it takes just a few ingredients to create an impressive creamy Green Goddess dressing with a fresh basil kick.

Foodie Byte: Use whatever heads of lettuce are the freshest around you. If you find great butter lettuce or Bibb lettuce, feel free to substitute it in place of the iceberg.
