Here’s a salad version of America’s favorite sandwich. We use shredded tomato as a base for the creamy tomato-and-chive dressing—adding great tang and flavor along with extra vitamin C.

Prep Time:25 minutes
Ready in:25 minutes
Yield:4 servings, about 1 1/4 cups each
Ease of Prep:Easy
Recipe Ingredients
 1 cup cubed whole-wheat country bread
 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
 4 medium tomatoes , divided
 3 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
 2 tablespoons minced chives or scallion greens
 2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  Freshly ground pepper to taste
 5 cups chopped hearts of romaine lettuce
 3 slices center-cut bacon , cooked and crumbled


Recipe Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Toss bread with oil and spread on a baking sheet. Bake, turning once, until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
  2. Cut 1 tomato in half. Working over a large bowl, shred both halves using the large holes on a box grater. Discard the skin. Add mayonnaise, chives (or scallion greens), vinegar, garlic powder and pepper; whisk to combine.
  3. Chop the remaining 3 tomatoes. Add the tomatoes, romaine and croutons to the bowl with the dressing; toss to coat. Sprinkle with bacon.
