Variations of this Recipe:
If you are wanting to make this easy salad a fuller meal, you can add a protein such as chicken, turkey or shrimp. It tastes amazing when you grill shrimp or chicken and add it to this BLT salad recipe.
If you do not eat pork bacon, you can use turkey bacon instead.
Add more bacon. For those asking, YES! You can add as much bacon as you want to!
BLT Salad Dressing
Normally with a BLT you have mayo as the sauce but this easy salad with bacon, avocados and tomatoes uses a healthy balsamic vinaigrette recipe. You can use your favorite salad dressing if you want to, but I highly suggest trying this salad with the balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing recipe. If you are going to use balsamic vinaigrette make the salad dressing ahead of time and let it sit in the fridge if you do not have any made yet.

Avocado Blt Salad Ingredients
- romaine lettuce
- avocado, diced or sliced
- cherry tomatoes
- cucumber sliced
- cooked bacon, crumbled
- feta cheese, crumbled
Avocado Blt Salad Directions
Cook the bacon with your preferred method. Personally I like to either cook it on the stove or bake bacon in the oven. If you are baking bacon in the oven, line a baking sheet with tin foil. Place the bacon in a single layer on the tin foil. Bake at 400° for 12-17 minutes depending on how crispy you like your bacon.
While the bacon is cooking wash the romaine lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes.
After washing the romaine lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes chop the romaine lettuce up and place into 2 bowls.
Then cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place on top of the chopped lettuce.
Next Peel and slice the cucumber and place on top of the lettuce.
Peel and slice the avocado and place half the avocado on top of each bowl of salad.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of feta cheese on top of each salad.
Remove the bacon from the oven and crumble, sprinkle 2 pieces of bacon crumbles worth on top of each salad.
Drizzle your preferred salad dressing on top of each salad.
