    PORK BELLY WEDGE SALAD

    MAKES: 4 servings · PREP TIME: 15 minutes

    I am a huge fan of wedge salads. There is something so satisfying about cutting into a big, crunchy wedge of iceberg lettuce. Plus, the topping possibilities are endless.

    INGREDIENTS

    • 1 large head iceberg lettuce, quartered

    • 1 cup dairy-free ranch dressing, store-bought or homemade (here)

    • 12 ounces precooked pork belly, cooked crisp and chopped

    • 12 grape tomatoes, halved

    • 3 tablespoons chopped red onions or Pickled Red Onions (here)

    • A few sprigs of fresh dill

    • 2 tablespoons Everything Bagel Seasoning (here)

    DIRECTIONS

    Put each iceberg wedge on a salad plate, drizzle with ¼ cup of the ranch dressing, and then divide the toppings equally among the wedges.

    tip: For this recipe, I like to use precooked pork belly from Trader Joe’s. I slice it up and pan-fry it in a dry skillet until it is nice and crispy. It tastes delicious and is a lot faster than preparing raw, uncured pork belly.
