How to make a bacon blue cheese hazelnut wedge salad

Ingredients 😄 the bacon is already in the oven 😋

So I put my bacon on some parchment on top of a cookie sheet and put it into a 425F oven. It cooked for 20 minutes or so, but keep checking on it so it doesn't burn 😉

Bacon sizzling and smelling fantastic! 😋

While you are waiting on the bacon, you can toast your hazelnuts. On another cookie sheet, put parchment paper down and spread the raw hazelnuts out. Put into a 300F oven for about 20 minutes.

Here they are all toasted 😄

Here is the nicely cooked and crispified bacon! Oh, I so can't wait to eat it....

Everything is ready to be made into an amazing salad so LET'S DO THIS!

First, chop your head of lettuce in half.

Here are the wedges, but they need to be trimmed a little more.

I cut the ends off and took off the outermost layer of lettuce because it was a little wilty.

Now is the time to pour on the blue cheese dressing...

Next add your crumbled blue cheese...

OMG it's BACON time 😋

Look at all that bacon! Yummmm...

Now add your hazelnuts. You can chop them if you want smaller pieces but we just put them on whole.

Croutons on top...

And there you have it! A fantastically tasty salad you're sure to love 😉
