I made it with Romaine and left out the croutons for a little lower carb salad and I loved it. The dressing is very nice too!

Wonderful! Definite winner and will make again. Sliced the bacon into pcs ranging from 1/2" to 1" and then pan-fried, which I did the day before for easy assembling the next day. Next time will cook just a tad more as it softens up a bit after mixed with the salad. Used a bit more milk to thin out the dressing, also didn't add all the dressing to the salad, this way people who wanted more could add more, though no one did. Used a vegetable seasoning mix instead of garlic powder. Tossed most of the items together, while reserving a few sliced grape tomatoes, bacon, croutons to place on top for aesthetic purposes at serving. Had requests to make this again next weekend, and I'm more than happy to comply. This is also the same as recipe #115388 , # 115388

I made this for a church pot luck and had many positive comments. I did not have garlic powder so used minced garlic and it was great. Thanks Gwynn!
