Mmhmm... it sure is!
And, as if this salad wasn't reason enough to celebrate - I just realized that today is my 2 YEAR Blogiversary!! I can't believe it's been two years!! A big thank you to all of my readers!!
I don't really know how to describe the flavors..I mean, it's bacon for cryin' out loud!! The crunch and saltiness of the bacon go really well with the sweetness and softer texture of the strawberries. And the dressing...? Soooo good!! And it's the perfect warm weather salad to add to your weekend menu.
