Today I’m making a trio of Wedge Salads on the noon news on WCPO with Tonya O’Rourke.
Crisp iceberg lettuce is the basis for a wedge salad. Garnish with your favorite toppings to make the salad your own. Here are 3 for inspiration. Each one is guaranteed to make a simple burger or grilled chicken breast far more interesting!
Classic Wedge with Blue Cheese Dressing: Garnish with crumbled bacon, crumbled blue cheese, diced red onion, sliced green onions, crispy onion straws and Creamy Blue Cheese dressing.

Loaded Mini Baked Potato Skins
Makes 48 pieces
The variations here are limitless. Top these little potatoes with chili, caviar, taco meat, shredded chicken, grilled vegetables, chutney…the list goes on. I have baked the shells the night before then reheated them gently before topping with cheese and broiling. I prefer them warm but room temperature works, too. Use more- or less- cheese and toppings, just make sure to keep them finely chopped, in keeping with the small scale of the potatoes.

Listen to the interview.
Lloyd Boston has built his reputation as America’s favorite “Style Guy” and Lifestyle TV Host. Millions of TV viewers from Oprah and NBC Today, to The View and Extra regularly follow Lloyd’s simple style philosophy that Less is Modern. He is the host of the popular show, Closet Cases, on Fine Living Network, and his own FLN lifestyle specials. Lloyd shared tips to make Spring’s hottest looks work for each one of us and how to bend the trends for any occasion, from day to night, business to casual.
Lloyd says we need to have a cardigan in our closet this year. He suggest pale/white jeans in place of dark. Floral, mossy green, brights are the color palette. Accessories are huge. Lloyd says to balance them, though. If you’ve got a stack of necklaces on, don’t stack the bracelets, too.

Salmon and Boursin Baked in Phyllo
Serves 4
Wine Suggestion: Grenache
This is a really nice way to serve fish. Adding flavorings between the layers of dough elevates it to a whole new level. This is great with a simple salad and steamed asparagus.
Prep time: 10 minutes
Bake time: 25-30 minutes
Make-ahead: Can be assembled early in the day and refrigerated until ready to bake.
Tip: The key to success with phyllo (or filo) is to keep it covered and work quickly. Gently unfold the thawed dough; cover with plastic wrap and then a damp kitchen towel. Every time you remove a sheet, re-cover the remaining dough immediately or it will dry out and crumble. You can re-freeze any unused dough, just be sure to wrap it well. For assembly, brush butter on the edges first, then work your way into the center
4 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
1/4 cup butter, melted
