Default BLT Soup

I remember years ago I had a soup in a restaurant called "BLT Soup", it
actually tasted very much like the sandwich, but of course without the
bread. It had bacon, lettuce and tomato and I think it probably used a ham
base. Does anyone have a recipe for this? Any help would be appreciated.

Default BLT Soup

I found this on the Food Network website:

BLT Soup
Recipe courtesy Paula Deen
Show: Paula's Home Cooking
Episode: The Working Lunch
5 slices bacon, finely diced, plus crisp crumbles bacon, for garnish
1/2 cup diced green onions
2 tablespoons butter
3 cups finely sliced iceberg lettuce
1/2 cup instant flour
3 1/2 cups fresh or canned chicken broth, heated to a simmer
1 cup diced fresh tomatoes
1/8 teaspoon grated fresh nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream

In a 3-quart pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until lightly
browned. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the
butter and stir until melted. Add the lettuce and saute for 2
minutes. Sprinkle the flour into the pot, then stir it in until well
blended. Remove the pot from the heat and add the hot chicken broth,
tomatoes, nutmeg and pepper. Heat the soup to boiling, stirring
constantly, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 5 minutes.
Add the cream and mix well.

Mix together the mayonnaise and sour cream. Serve each portion of
soup with a dollop of mayonnaise mixture topped with crumbled bacon.
