Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 stuffed tomatoes

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces bacon, chopped
3 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch kosher salt
1/2 heart of romaine lettuce, shredded
6 to 8 cocktail or Campari tomatoes

Steps:

  • Place the bacon in a small skillet; heat over medium heat until beginning to sizzle. Reduce the heat to medium low; cook until crisp and golden brown, about 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
  • Add the breadcrumbs to the hot bacon fat; cook, stirring often, until lightly toasted and crunchy, about 3 minutes. Remove the breadcrumbs to a separate paper towel-lined plate, spread evenly, and then sprinkle with the Parmesan to melt slightly.
  • With a rubber spatula, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice and salt in a bowl. Add the shredded romaine; toss well to coat.
  • Cut a small amount off the bottom of each tomato to create a flat surface to sit on. Then cut off the tops as well. Run a small knife around the inside of the tomatoes to loosen the flesh. Using a 1/2-teaspoon measuring spoon, scoop out and discard the insides of each tomato.
  • Divide the bacon among the tomatoes, pushing it down slightly. Top with some of the romaine, followed by the bacon-parmesan breadcrumbs. Serve at room temperature.

STUFFED BLT SALAD



Stuffed BLT Salad image

In this twist on a classic BLT, big, meaty, juicy heirloom tomatoes take center stage, and bread plays a supporting role. For toast infused with the flavors of traditional Spanish pan con tomate, serve the stuffed tomato on top of it. As you cut through the tomato, the juices will soak into the bread and make it all the more delicious!

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (1 cup)
4 slices white sandwich bread
1/4 cup mayonnaise
4 large heirloom tomatoes, such as Brandywine, Cherokee Purple, or Big Yellow Zebra
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • Slice tomatoes 1/2 inch below stem ends to remove tops. Scoop out pulp and seeds from centers of tomatoes, leaving behind hollowed-out shells, and transfer to a strainer set over a bowl. When drained, remove pulp from strainer and chop; discard seeds in strainer. Reserve juices in bowl.
  • Generously season insides of hollowed tomatoes with salt and pepper. In a large bowl, whisk together oil and 1/4 cup reserved tomato juice; season with salt and pepper. Add greens, chopped tomato pulp, and bacon, tossing to evenlycoat; season with salt and pepper. Divide mixture evenly among tomatoes. Cut toasts into triangles and serve, alongside tomatoes, or place tomatoes on top of whole toasts to serve.

  • Quality bacon: The bacon is a key ingredient in this salad, so it's important to use good quality bacon that is thick-cut and has a good smoky flavor.
  • Don't overcook the bacon: The bacon should be cooked until it is crispy, but not overcooked. Overcooked bacon will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a variety of lettuces: This salad is a great way to use up different types of lettuce. Try using a mix of romaine, iceberg, and arugula for a salad that is both crunchy and flavorful.
  • Add some crunch: The addition of croutons or chopped nuts adds a nice crunchy texture to this salad. You can also add some chopped celery or carrots for extra crunch.
  • Make it a meal: This salad can be served as a main course or a side dish. If you're serving it as a main course, you can add some grilled chicken or shrimp.
