Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease, then crumble into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
Wash and halve the cherry tomatoes. Wash, dry, and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, fresh lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, crumbled bacon, and croutons.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Transfer the salad to a serving bowl or individual plates. Garnish with freshly chopped chives, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful Inside Out BLT Salad!
