By DreiFromBK

Ingredients

• 4 ounces crumbled Maytag blue cheese
• 3/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 4 ounces slab bacon, cut into large dice
• 1/2 pound romaine hearts, small leaves whole, large leaves cut into pieces

Preparation

Step 1

In a food processor, pulse the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

In a large skillet, cook the bacon over moderate heat, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain the bacon on paper towels.

Thread a few romaine leaves and bacon cubes onto each of 24 long bamboo skewers. Arrange the skewers on a platter and serve with the blue cheese dressing on the side.
