BLT Sandwich Salad

This is another recipe that I found on the Food Network site. I never use to like BLT's but after eating one again that my roommate made for me I discovered that I really do like all these flavors together. This recipe is dedicated to my amazing boyfriend because one of his favorite foods is BLT Sandwiches. 

Ingredients:

• 1 head romaine lettuce, thinly sliced (about 6 cups)
• 1/2 cup chopped red onion
• 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
• 1 bag of croutons, flavor of your choice
• 6 strips of bacon (fully cooked and chopped)

 Dressing:

• 1/2 cup mayo
• 1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 4 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions: 

Combine the lettuce, tomatoe, onion and cooked bacon in a large bowl and set aside. 

Make the dressing: Whisk the mayonnaise, syrup, mustard and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Add the dressing to the salad and toss. (This is enough dressing for the whole salad, but you can use less if you want a less wet salad.) Sprinkle the croutons on top and eat.
