Categories     Lunch     Salad

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 slices lean center cut bacon (cooked and chopped)
4 Roma tomatoes (chopped)
1/4 cup light mayonnaise (I use Hellman's)
1/8 tsp kosher salt
fresh black pepper (to taste)
6 cups chopped Romaine lettuce
4 oz 1 medium hass avocado, diced

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes with the mayonnaise, and season with a little salt and fresh cracked pepper. Set aside for about 10 minutes to let the tomatoes release their juices as this will be the "dressing" to your salad.
  • To serve, divide the chopped lettuce and tomatoes onto 4 plates, then top each with diced avocado, chopped bacon and tomato mixture.
