BLT Salad
By Esther Boateng
Tuck into this tasty salad made with bacon, green leaves, and juicy red tomatoes. Start with a base of organic green leaves such as arugula, butter lettuce, or watercress. Liven up your salad with warm baked cherry tomatoes or add a touch of flavor with a rich homemade tomato pesto. Combine your green leaves with sliced cucumber, crumbled feta, and a light dressing to add a zesty touch.
