BUTTER LETTUCE SALAD WITH BACON, DRIED APRICOTS & ROQUEFORT VINAIGRETTE

8 slices bacon, diced (about 3/4 cup)
3 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
½ cup vegetable oil
1 cup crumbled Roquefort cheese
2 large heads of butter lettuce, outer leaves removed (reserve for another use), remaining leaves torn into large pieces
½ cup B & R Farms dried apricots

Sauté bacon in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat until brown and crisp. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Whisk mayonnaise and vinegar in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in oil, then cheese. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.

Toss torn lettuce leaves, half of apricots and half of bacon with enough dressing to coat. Divide salad among 6 plates. Top with remaining apricots and bacon and serve.
