This vibrant bacon, lettuce, and cherry tomato salad offers a sophisticated twist on the classic BLT flavours. By using applewood-smoked bacon and a variety of heritage tomatoes, you create a dish that is both visually striking and deeply savoury. The richness from the pan-fried bacon fat forms the base of a quick, dairy-free aioli dressing that gently wilts the crisp romaine leaves for a comforting, bistro-style finish.
As a naturally dairy-free recipe, this salad is an excellent choice for those seeking a lighter yet satisfying lunch or a flavourful side dish for a weekend barbecue. The combination of varied textures and the creamy, garlic-infused dressing makes it a reliable favourite for effortless entertaining. Best served immediately while the dressing is warm and the bacon is at its crunchiest.
