Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 medium head escarole (about 12 ounces), rinsed and outer leaves removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 slices bacon, preferably center cut
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for grilling
4 thick slices sourdough bread

Steps:

BLT SALAD WITH CROSTINI



BLT Salad With Crostini image

This is an easy-to-make main dish salad from bhg.com. For even quicker prep, sub heat-and-eat bacon for the turkey bacon. Don't cheat on the dressing, though. IMO, that makes the whole thing worth eating. Use neutral greens, like romaine or iceberg lettuces, so that the greens don't overpower the rest of the salad. I use the pre-chopped romaine hearts from the produce section so I can throw the whole thing together in 15 minutes. Also, the dressing is pretty thick. If you prefer a thinner dressing, add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it reaches the desired consistency.
