If you like BLT sandwiches, here's a fun way to enjoy the same flavors in a salad.
Iceburg lettuce
1 large tomato, cut in wedges
2 slices diet lacy swiss cheese cut in small squares
2T of bacon bits
handful of croutons
Put everything in a bowl and toss. Top with your favorite vinegarette dressing. If you like ranch that is probably the best choice to make this taste like a yummy sandwich!

Smoked salmon
We have been having smoked salmon more often.
Untreated cedar boards are easy and great to smoke salmon. You can buy and untreated fence board and cut into pieces or buy neatly cut boards in packages and various local stores.
Soak the board in water a good 2-4 hours so it doesn't burn on the grill.
Place salmon fillets on the board.
Wrap the board in foil like a tent and cover salmon.
Place on medium heat grill for as long as necessary about 20 minutes for medium.
Remove foil and check that fish is done (light and flaky).
The fish will be slightly crispy on the ends and have a great smoked flavor.
Enjoy with a salad or your favorite vegetable and a nice Pinot Noir.
