    Process blue cheese, sour cream, mustard and lemon juice in a food processor until smooth. Add 1 tbsp water, if necessary, to thin the dressing.
    Toss lettuce, chicken and apple mixture in a large bowl. Season. Divide among serving plates. Drizzle with blue cheese dressing. Serve salad with rolls.
