Love BLTs but looking for a healthier take on the sandwich? Then we’ve got the perfect salad for you! This avocado BLT salad is creamy with mayo-marinated tomatoes, romaine lettuce, diced avocado, and bacon. If you miss the bun, you can always add some croutons.

Ingredients

  • 12 slices lean, center-cut bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 4 Roma tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
  • pinch Kosher salt
  • 6 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • fresh black pepper to taste
  • 1 medium avocado, diced

Instructions

  1. Combine the diced tomatoes, mayonnaise, salt, and fresh cracked pepper in a medium bowl and set it aside for 10 minutes. This will allow the tomatoes to release their juices for the dressing to your salad.
  2. Divide the lettuce and tomatoes onto four plates and top each plate with diced avocado and chopped bacon.
