What to do:
Dressing
1. In a mixing bowl, gently combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, Worcestershire, vinegar, blue cheese and chives. Don't over mix. The dressing should have a chunky consistency.
Salad:
1. Remove cores from the lettuce with a sharp knife and discard. Pull out a few of the inner leaves from each half-head to form a shallow bowl. (Reserve leaves that were removed for another use.) Arrange halves on 4 individual salad plates.
2. Divide the blue cheese dressing among the 4 lettuce halves.
3. Toss remaining salad ingredients together in a small bowl; divide and spoon the mixture equally onto the dressed salads. Serve immediately.
