Bacon Lettuce Salad Recipe

Ingredients for Bacon Lettuce Salad

• 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
• Lettuce
• 1/2 cup radishes, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup cauliflower florets
• 6 slices bacon, cut into small pieces
• 1/2 cup your favorite creamy salad dressing (ranch or Caesar recommended)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

How to Make Bacon Lettuce Salad

1. Cook bacon: In a medium skillet, cook bacon pieces over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
2. Prepare vegetables: While bacon cooks, thinly slice radishes and red onion. If using cauliflower, break into bite-sized florets.
3. Assemble salad: In a large bowl, layer lettuce, radishes, red onion, and cauliflower.
4. Add bacon: Distribute the cooked bacon evenly over the vegetables.
5. Dress the salad: Spread salad dressing evenly over the bacon layer.
6. Top with cheese: Sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan cheese.
7. Rest and serve: Let the salad sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the dressing to soften the vegetables. Gently toss before serving. Enjoy!
