And don’t forget to enter the giveaway too! Today we are going for simple, and delicious, with an Heirloom Tomato BLT Salad with Warm Bacon Dressing.

I know, it sounds complicated, because it has such a long name. But trust me, it’s not. It’s just some lettuce, some bacon, some tomatoes, eggs, and a super simple dressing.

But it’s a flavor explosion, you guys.

You can get creative with you lettuce choice; sometimes I like to use spinach, but this time I went with romaine because it reminded me more of a salad I used to enjoy at a place called Figlio in Uptown, Minneapolis. Miss Uptown. So this heirloom tomato blt salad with warm bacon dressing is a tribute to my long lost love. And hopefully it can be your newfound love. Because, bacon. And bacon dressing.

Ingredients

• 4 C Romaine Lettuce, roughly chopped
• 3 Hardboiled Eggs, sliced
• 6 Cherry Heirloom Tomatoes, or 1 Large Heirloom Tomato, sliced
• 8 Slices Bacon, crumbled
• 1/4 C Bacon Grease

Instructions

1. Cook the bacon until crispy either in the oven or in a pan, removing the bacon to a paper towel to drain and reserving the bacon grease. Warm the bacon grease in a small pan over medium heat, whisking in the balsamic vinegar and seasoning with salt and pepper. Crumble in 2 slices of the bacon into small bits, then set aside.
2. Assemble the salads onto 2 plates, dividing the lettuce, eggs, tomatoes, and remaining 6 slices of bacon equally between them. Drizzle with the warm bacon dressing, sprinkle with additional salt and pepper as needed and serve immediately.
