Ingredients
- 6 slices Bacon
- 6 cups Romaine lettuce
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup Croutons
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chopped chives (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Step 2
Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly, pat it dry, and chop it into bite-sized pieces. Place the lettuce in a large salad bowl.
Step 3
Rinse and halve the cherry tomatoes. Add them to the salad bowl with the lettuce.
Step 4
Add the croutons to the bowl for extra crunch and texture.
Step 5
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy. If desired, stir in the chopped chives for added flavor.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to coat everything evenly.
Step 7
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of the salad as a finishing touch.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your Easy BLT Salad!
