Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) ranch salad dressing
  • 1/3 cup (45 g / 1.59 oz) crumbled blue cheese
  • 1/4 cup (10 g / 0.35 oz) chopped watercress
  • 1 pound (450 g / 15.9 oz) ground pork sausage
  • 2 tbsps / 30 ml (1 fl oz) minced fresh chives
  • 6 large leaves of iceberg lettuce
  • 1 large avocado, peeled and diced
  • 4 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 1 medium tomato, chopped
  • For the best lettuce cups, core the head of iceberg lettuce and run it under cold water. The leaves will separate easily without tearing.
  • The blue cheese dressing can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • For a sturdier, more nutrient-dense wrap, substitute iceberg with butter lettuce or large romaine hearts.
  • Feel free to use spicy Italian sausage or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the pork for an extra kick of heat.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the ranch dressing, crumbled blue cheese, and chopped watercress.
  3. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Heat a large cast-iron skillet or pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Add the ground pork sausage to the hot skillet.
  6. Cook the sausage for about 7-8 minutes, using a spoon to break it apart into crumbles as it browns.
  7. Once cooked through, drain off any excess grease.
  8. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the minced chives.
  9. To assemble, spoon the warm sausage mixture evenly into the six iceberg lettuce leaves.
  10. Top the sausage with the chopped hard-boiled eggs, diced tomato, and diced avocado.
  11. Drizzle generously with the blue cheese dressing and serve immediately.
