STEAKHOUSE SALAD WITH CATTLEMEN'S STEAKHOUSE (RE-MAKE) DRESSING
Source: Milliver's Travels

1 clove garlic
8 oz. low-fat sour cream
2 Tbsp mayonnaise (I used olive oil mayo)
1 Tbsp low-fat milk
1/2 tsp horseradish
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 ounces EXTRA sharp cheddar cheese
1 Tbsp olive oil

In a food processor, process clove of garlic until well minced. Add all remaining dressing ingredients EXCEPT the olive oil. Process until fairly smooth, scraping down as needed. Add olive oil and process until smooth. Set aside.

(I used a mixture of Romaine and iceberg lettuce and coarsely chopped tomatoes for the salad).

Disclaimer: This is our food writer's attempt to recreate the Cattlemen's Restaurant salad dressing because she loves it so much. Milliver's Travels does not have access to the original recipe.
