Pioneer Woman Blt Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put wire racks into 2 sheet pans, then put the slices of regular bacon on top. Roast until crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• Pack up the lettuce, Cheddar and onions in a foil container. Pack up the two kinds of bacon in a separate foil container. Pack up the bread in a separate foil container.
• Set out containers and let everyone make their own sandwiches. Serve with the salad, mayo, pickles and ketchup.
• Put the tomato and watermelon chunks in a bowl.
• For the honey vinaigrette: Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice and honey in a bowl, then add salt and pepper to taste.
• Drizzle vinaigrette over the tomatoes and watermelon, then toss. Transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle over the feta and basil.
• Add egg yolks and mustard to a bowl and whisk to combine. Blend in a circular motion with an immersion blender and slowly add the oil, taking care for the first 30 seconds to avoid splitting.
• Add the rest of the oil until you have a thick, glossy mayonnaise. Add lemon juice, salt and pepper, then blend a little more and serve.
• Combine the vinegar, sugar, crushed red pepper flakes, seeds and dill with 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
• Toss together the cucumber, jalapeño if using and onion, then transfer them to a wide-mouth quart size Mason jar. Carefully pour over the warm vinegar mixture.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to 7 days.

Steps:

• Shred each crab stick by placing on a work surface and raking a fork along the length of the stick to create long strands. Turn the stick a quarter turn and rake again; repeat on each remaining side. Use your fingers to pull apart any remaining strands. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the carrots, cucumbers, mango and 1 teaspoon salt to the large bowl; toss well.
• Stir together the mayonnaise, rice vinegar and sriracha in a small bowl. Add to the large bowl and toss well to coat. Taste and add more salt, if needed. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• To serve, mound the kani salad onto a serving platter or in a bowl and sprinkle with black sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water as the label directs. Drain and toss with the milk in a large bowl; set aside.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Discard all but 3 tablespoons drippings from the pan. Add the tomatoes, thyme and garlic to the pan and toss until warmed through; season with salt and pepper. Crumble the bacon into bite-size pieces; set aside 1/4 cup for garnish. Toss the remaining bacon and the tomato mixture with the pasta.
• Mix the mayonnaise, sour cream and 3 tablespoons chives with the pasta until evenly combined. Season with salt and pepper. Add the lettuce; toss again to coat. Garnish with the reserved bacon and the remaining 1 tablespoon chives. Serve at room temperature.
