I am not at all familiar with this 'Ruth Chris' thing but I just googled 'Ruth Chris Salad Recipe' and many things, including a youtube video, came up.

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup crumbled bleu cheese
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon onion powder

1 head iceberg lettuce

Use an electric mixer to combine all ingredients for bleu cheese dressing in a medium bowl. Slice a head of iceberg lettuce into quarters through the stem end. Cut the stem off of the wedges and arrange each one on a plate. Spoon about 1/4 cup of bleu cheese dressing over each lettuce wedge. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of crumbled bleu cheese over the dressing. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of diced tomato over the top and serve.

Notes: At the steak house they also top the salad with crumbled bacon.

Thanks for the recipes, Hoovermom! That chopped salad looks delicious, and I am so making that dressing the next time my grocery has fresh basil

All of their items are wonderful. I have eaten there many times and have never gotten anything that wasn't amazing. And for that type of restaurant (seemingly expensive) it wasn't as bad as I thought. I took my husband to the one close to us, and he loved it! One of my favorite things is that there sides are "family style". Hope you enjoy!

I have only eaten at Ruth's Chris once. If you are in the Seattle area there are much better steak houses for a comparable price such as Metropolitan Grill, Daniels Broiler, Morton's and my favorite, John Howie Steak.
