BLT SALAD
For when you want to lean into summer but are trying to be a little bit healthier. There's bacon fat-fried ciabatta, so emphasis on a little. You could use any greens you have on hand, cherry tomatoes instead of beefsteak, and regular mayo instead of Kewpie. Happy BLTing!

- Chop the bacon, then toss with the lettuce, crispy bread and tomatoes. Top with the buttermilk dressing and additional chives.

Steps:
- Place the bacon in a small skillet; heat over medium heat until beginning to sizzle. Reduce the heat to medium low; cook until crisp and golden brown, about 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
- Add the breadcrumbs to the hot bacon fat; cook, stirring often, until lightly toasted and crunchy, about 3 minutes. Remove the breadcrumbs to a separate paper towel-lined plate, spread evenly, and then sprinkle with the Parmesan to melt slightly.
- With a rubber spatula, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice and salt in a bowl. Add the shredded romaine; toss well to coat.
- Cut a small amount off the bottom of each tomato to create a flat surface to sit on. Then cut off the tops as well. Run a small knife around the inside of the tomatoes to loosen the flesh. Using a 1/2-teaspoon measuring spoon, scoop out and discard the insides of each tomato.
- Divide the bacon among the tomatoes, pushing it down slightly. Top with some of the romaine, followed by the bacon-parmesan breadcrumbs. Serve at room temperature.

- Combine the tomatoes, olive oil, chives, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Let sit for 5 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- For the salad: Place the bacon on the prepared baking sheet, transfer to the oven and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping the bacon halfway through.
- Meanwhile, make the dressing. Add the mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, oil, salt, and pepper to a mason jar, cover and shake to emulsify. Set aside.
- Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Add the bread to the pan with the bacon fat and toss to combine. Transfer the pan back to the oven and cook until lightly golden and crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. When the bacon is cool enough to handle, chop it into large bite-sized pieces and set aside.
- To assemble the salad, add the tomatoes to the base of a bowl or travel container. Add the iceberg and arugula on top. Sprinkle with the chives and dill. Top the salad with the bacon and ciabatta croutons. When ready to serve, drizzle on three-quarters of the dressing and toss to combine. Serve with extra dressing on the side.

- Cut each slice of bacon into 3 pieces. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place bacon pieces on the sheet. Bake for about 10 – 13 minutes. Watch the bacon closely towards the end of the baking time. The bacon should be just cooked but, still slightly soft. Remove the bacon from the oven to a paper towel lined plate. The bacon will crisp up a little more while it cools.
- Cut 2-inch rounds out of each slice of bread. There should be about 24 to 28 rounds. Set aside.
