Ingredients
-
1 cup good quality mayonnaise (Hellman's is good)
-
1 cup chopped fresh basil leaf
-
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)

2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
-
2 teaspoons anchovy paste (optional-I don't use)

1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
-
1 cup light sour cream
-
3 heads bibb lettuce
-
2 -3 tomatoes
-
1 cup chopped scallion, white and green parts (6-7 scallions)
Instructions
- Plaace the mayonnaise, scallions, basil, lemon juice, garlic, anchovy paste(if using), salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Add sour cream and process just until blended. If you are not using immediately, chill the dressing until ready to serve.
- Cut each head of lettuce into quarters, remove some of the cores and arrange on 6 salad plates. Cut the tomatoes into wedges and add to plates. Pour on the dressing and serve. Enjoy!
