55 House Salad

---

There was a chain of italian restaurants in the columbus, ohio area that had this awesome salad as their house salad. i don't like blue cheese, so asked for it to be omitted, but loved the combination of bacon, lettuce and dressing. when the salad was brought to the table, they then offered fresh ground black pepper. i think this recipe was posted in the columbus dispatch newspaper. note: due to this being a restaurant recipe, it makes a alot of dressing, about two cups, so you might want to cut the amount of dressing to 1/4 or 1/2 of this recipe.
