One of my all-time favorite sandwiches is the humble BLT. In my opinion, it is hard to beat the combination of salty bacon, fresh tomato, spinach and a smear of mayonnaise. However, there are times when I don’t feel like eating a lot of bread and that’s when I opt for this BLT Salad with Sweet Onion Vinaigrette instead.
If I tell my kids that we’re having salad for dinner, they’ll groan and complain. But if I put those three magic letters in front of the word “salad”, the kids will jump for joy! To make this salad, I simply combine the classic BLT ingredients on a sharing salad platter with a sweet dressing. I also add eggs which I prepare in two ways – grated and sliced. I bring the platter straight to the table and people can just help themselves. Try it for yourself – I know you’ll love it!
To make my version of BLT Salad with Sweet Onion Vinaigrette, you will need the following ingredients:
Combine the apple cider vinegar, honey, onion, mustard, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk in the oil gently. Once the dressing has come together, set it aside.
Slice two of the eggs. Grate the other two eggs finely.
On a large salad platter spread the greens, tomatoes, bacon and grated eggs in strips
Coat the salad with the dressing and use the egg slices to garnish.
Serve immediately.
This BLT Salad with Sweet Onion Vinaigrette has been a life saver in my house. I can now say that my kids eat salad! Try it out and leave a comment to let me know what you think.
