I came up with this one late morning when it was almost lunch time. I'd had some bacon I planned on having for breakfast, but then we ended up sleeping in. It was pretty good so I made it again and adjusted a few things and now it makes a great meal any time of day. 1/2 lb of bacon is enough for just an accent of bacon; use a full pound if you want your salad meatier. Ingredients:
1/2 loaf french bread, cut into 1-inch cubes and dried overnight (a loaf, not a baguette) |
1/2-1 lb bacon |
2 cups halved grape tomatoes |
2 cups chopped romaine lettuce |
Directions:
1. Fry bacon up in large skillet and drain on paper towels.
2. Pour off all but about 1/3 cup of the drippings and return to heat.
3. Add bread cubes and toss to coat in drippings.
4. Sautee bread cubes until lightly golden, 4-5 minutes. Work in batches if neccessary.
5. Chop or tear bacon into 1 inch pieces.
6. Combine tomatoes, bread, bacon, and lettuce.
7. Drizzle with your favorite dressing and serve!
