435. RADICCHIO, GORGONZOLA, and BACON SALAD

6 slices bacon
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 small head Boston or Bibb lettuce, torn into bite sized pieces
1 head radicchio (about 1/2 pound), thinly sliced
1/2 cup gorgonzola cheese (about 2 ounces), crumbled
2 tablespoons Italian (flat leaf) parsley leaves

Cook bacon until crisp; transfer to a paper towel to drain. Crumble bacon; set aside. In a large bowl whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Add Boston lettuce, radicchio, cheese and parsley. Toss gently to coat. Transfer to plates; sprinkle with bacon.
