Grandma Richter's Wilted Lettuce Salad image

Yummmm! This is a simple but delicious salad. The dressing really makes this salad - sweet and delicious. I've never had a dressing like this before ... I will definitely be taking this one to our next church dinner.

Number Of Ingredients 8

SALAD INGREDIENTS:
12 cups (8 oz.) romaine lettuce (see *note)
11 slices hickory smoked bacon, cooked and crumbled
2-1/2 tablespoons diced onion
CREAMY DRESSING INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, plus 2 tablespoons of the cream
1/4 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, plus 1 tablespoon

Steps:

  • 1. Place salad ingredients into a very large bowl. (I put mine into a 13 cup size Tupperware bowl.)
  • 2. In another bowl, add the creamy dressing ingredients. Stir thoroughly to blend the ingredients together.
  • 3. Pour the creamy dressing, a little at a time, over the salad, and stir gently to combine.
  • 4. Once the creamy dressing has been completely mixed into the salad, serve the salad immediately.
  • 5. *Note: When making this salad, you can pretty much use any type of lettuce, but my daughter and I agree, we much prefer using romaine lettuce; picked fresh from ones garden, but you can use store bought lettuce, even the iceberg lettuce. Also, when adding the leaves to the bowl, I pretty much left the leaves whole, except for the leaves that were a bit too large, then I tore those in half.
