Recipe taken from:
www.allrecipes.com

Ingredients:

• 1 pound bacon
• 3/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
• salt to taste
• 1 head romaine lettuce - rinsed, dried and shredded
• 2 large tomatoes, chopped
• 2 cups seasoned croutons

Preparation:
1.Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat, turning frequently, until evenly browned. Drain, crumble and set aside.
2.In a blender or food processor, combine mayonnaise, milk, garlic powder and black pepper. Blend until smooth. Season the dressing with salt.
3.Combine lettuce, tomatoes, bacon and croutons in a large salad bowl. Toss with dressing, and serve immediately.

Notes & Tips:
I halved this recipe since obviously I won't be having a pound of bacon by myself. Even half of this recipe still made plenty for leftovers. I just didn't mix the dressing in with part of the ingredients so it didn't get soggy.
