Iceberg Lettuce with Blue Cheese Vinaigrette

I've been lovin' all things blue cheese this summer.
This recipe is real great for summer, it's fast and easy.
Perfect with a steak just off the grill.

3Tbl. white wine vinegar
1 small shallot, finely chopped (I also use a green onion)
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
coarse sea salt and ground pepper
1 head iceberg lettuce, quartered into wedges

Whisk vinegar, shallot and mustard. Pour in oil in a slow steady stream, whisking constantly. Stir in 1/2 of the blue cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
Arrange lettuce. Drizzle with vinegrette, sprinkle with remaining blue cheese.
-This is also very good with crumbled bacon added-
