Steps:
- Combine avocado, garlic, dill, lemon juice, buttermilk, and 2 tablespoons water in a blender; puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. (If dressing is too thick, add more water, a tablespoon at a time.)
- Toss together lettuce, cucumber, bacon, and radishes in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with 1/4 cup dressing. Serve remaining dressing on the side, or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 2 days.

Steps:
- For the dressing: In a food processor, combine all the ingredients and puree until smooth and creamy.
- Core the lettuce heads and separate them into individual leaves. In a large bowl, toss the lettuce leaves with enough of the dressing to coat them lightly; you may not need it all. Arrange the lettuce on a platter. Sprinkle with chives and parsley, then with chopped egg. Scatter the cherry tomatoes around the lettuce. Serve immediately.
- Enjoy with Cakebread Cellars Napa Valley Chardonnay or another elegant, cool-climate Chardonnay.
