Creamy Bleu Cheese Dressing + Grilled Romaine

FullSizeRender-1.jpg

Whether you're going classic with a cobb salad or looking to try something fancy (grilled romaine!?*), this creamy bleu cheese dressing gives you all the cheese impact with a lot less guilt. Greek yogurt is used as the base to cut down on fat and up the protein of this typically calorie and fat dense dressing.

*Grilled romaine goes really well with this dressing - slice heads of romaine in half, drizzle/spray with olive oil, and sprinkle with black pepper. Grill (or use a grill pan) on medium high heat for 2-3 minutes each side until you get those nice grill marks.
