For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and consider adding some crumbled feta cheese for a salty tang. To toast the slivered almonds, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden and fragrant. Watch them carefully as they can burn easily. The dressing can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Feel free to substitute the romaine lettuce with other greens such as spinach, butter lettuce, or a spring mix.
