Prepare the blue cheese dressing by combining mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, white wine vinegar, chopped onion, minced garlic, Italian parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Crumble in the blue cheese and mix well.

Chill the blue cheese dressing in the refrigerator.

While the dressing chills, prepare the salad by cutting the head of iceberg lettuce into wedges.

Cook the thick sliced bacon until crispy and crumble it over the salad.

Assemble the salad by placing the lettuce wedges on a plate, topping with cherry tomatoes and red onion, and drizzling with the blue cheese dressing.
