Ingredients
- 6 slices Bacon
- 6 cups Romaine lettuce
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 1 large Avocado
- 0.25 cup Red onion
- 1 cup Croutons
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 8-10 minutes, flipping occasionally. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cool, chop into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
While the bacon cooks, prepare the vegetables. Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl. Halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the avocado, and thinly slice the red onion. Add these to the bowl along with the croutons.
Step 3
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 4
Add the chopped bacon to the salad. Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss everything gently to combine, ensuring all ingredients are evenly coated.
Step 5
Serve immediately and enjoy your California BLT Salad!
