BLT Salad
Rating (0 Rated)
There are a lot of versions of bacon, lettuce, and tomato salads but most are heavy on mayo and bacon. We like this version because it’s lightened up and bursting with tomato flavor. It’s a great way to showcase the flavor of tomatoes in season! Make it vegetarian by using your favorite veggie bacon.
