I took this to a dinner party and I was disappointed, although the guests said it was good. Two pounds of Romaine is WAY too much for this light dressing. I made it exactly as stated, but I found it bland. Two pounds is a LOT of lettuce. It looked like the proper amount of lettuce after one pound and I should have stopped there. Also, with that amount of lettuce, it should have had more bacon and onion. I even added a bit of oregano and extra black pepper, and a dash of hot sauce, but it was bland. I think one and a half thin hearts of romaine would be perfect.

I'm a very busy mother of two, 1 of them being autistic, hence the name "autism mommy". Cooking is my passion, I absolutely love it and am always looking for new recipes. When my son wakes around 2 a.m. because of the autism, I often start cooking so that I don't kill him!!! His school knows when he hasn't slept because there are always goodies waiting for them still warm from the oven first thing in the morning!!!<img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
