BLT Salad

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place a wire cooking rack on the baking sheet. Evenly space out the bacon out on the prepared pan and bake for 15-18 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and browned.

Step 2

While the bacon is baking, mix together the milk and vinegar and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Add in the sour cream, parsley, dill, garlic, basil, salt, and pepper and mix well, adding in additional milk, 1 tablespoon of milk at a time, if needed to thin.

Step 3

Wash and dry the lettuce well and then chop into bite-size pieces. Slice the tomatoes in half. Chop the cooked bacon into small pieces as well.

Step 4

Toss together the lettuce, tomatoes, bacon, and 1/2 cup of the dressing together and place in a serving dish.

Step 5

Top the salad with croutons and chopped chives.

Step 6

Serve the salad immediately with additional dressing on the side.
