Deb has made this salad since I have known her, sans bacon... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" />
even better if you let the cheese, basil, tomatos, garlic, oil & vinegar sit overnite...

Without the bacon in cannot be BLT salad can it <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />
Deb likes it with halved grape tomatos... or even better yet, yellow tomatos... Yummm!
Our friends grow lots of yellow tomatos every year, so we end up with a lot of them...
They make a fantastic yellow sauce for pasta!
I peel and de-seed them, and then make my tomato sauce from there!
EXCELLENT to make a vodka sauce! and they add a unique color to any dish...
