OUTBACK-STYLE BLUE CHEESE WEDGE SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, buttermilk and sugar in a small bowl. Stir in the blue cheese and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Combine the sugar, balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons water in a small nonstick skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Pour into a small bowl and let cool.
• Make the salad: Divide the iceberg wedges among plates. Spoon the dressing on top, letting it run down the sides. Drizzle all over with some of the glaze, about 1 teaspoon per wedge (you will not need all the glaze). Top with the tomatoes, red onion, bacon and blue cheese.

Steps:

• Bleu Cheese Vinaigrette: Combine all ingredients except vinegar and lemon juice in a small pan over medium heat. Heat until mixture begins to bubble, remove from heat. Cool mixture.

Cinnamon Pecans: Combine sugar, water, butter, cinnamon and salt in a small pan over medium heat. When mixture first reaches a boil, add pecans. Stir constantly until liquid evaporates and sugar begins to crystallize on the nuts. Don't allow the nuts to smoke or burn. Pour sugar crystallized pecans out onto a plate to cool. Assemble The Salad: Combine lettuce, green onion, red cabbage, shredded carrot, pecans and pasta in a large bowl. Toss with 3/4 cup of the dressing. Top with 2 tablespoons crumbled bleu cheese on each serving.

Remove the baking sheet from the oven, slide the parchment together with the nuts off the sheet to cool, and set aside.
