Perfect Salad for Chicken Wings

We had a couple friends over to watch the University of Texas game last night. My husband made his wing sauce a little spicy so the cucumber and blue cheese paired well. The guys even took seconds! Inspiration for this salad came from Kaleidoscope Pizza 's Rogue Ranch and Buffalo Bleu.

Ingredients:
Romaine lettuce, chopped
Red pepper, sliced thin
Carrot, sliced very thin
Cucumber, sliced very thin
French fried onions
Blue cheese, crumbled
Ranch dressing

I am not comfortable yet with my knife skills so I used the mandolin. I love French fried onions and think that are a nice substitute for croutons. Our favorite blue cheeses are from Rogue Creamery. For this recipe we used the smokey blue.
