Jasper's Iceberg Babies® BLT Gorgonzola


Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients:

8 Garden Hearts® Iceberg Babies®
4 strips of pancetta, thinly sliced
2 Roma tomatoes
1 bundle chives, finely chopped

Dressing:
12 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
6 ounces sour cream
teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
8 drops Tabasco sauce
pinch cayenne pepper
6 ounces heavy cream, whipped

1. Cut off the stem of the Iceberg Babies®, rinse under cold water, allow to drip dry completely, and chill.

2. Combine dressing ingredients, except heavy cream, and chill.

3. Sauté pancetta until lightly browned and crisp. Place on a paper towel to wick away fat. Crumble 4 strips and reserve 4 for garnish.

4. Dice tomatoes into 1/4-inch cubes.

5. To serve, cut each head into 5 equal wedges and arrange on a plate, creating a pinwheel with the wedges facing the same direction.

6. Fold the whipped cream into the dressing just before serving and place a generous dollop in the middle of the Iceberg Babies® pinwheel.
