Ingredients

• 12 slices thick-cut bacon
• 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded
• 0.5 cup bell pepper, diced
• 0.25 cup onion, finely chopped
• 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 whole avocado
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lay out the slices of bacon vertically on the baking sheet, slightly overlapping them to form a rectangle.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, bell pepper, onion, spinach leaves, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even distribution of spices.

Step 4

Carefully spread the chicken mixture evenly over the bacon rectangle, leaving about an inch border on all sides.

Step 5

Starting from one of the shorter edges, tightly roll the bacon over the filling into a log or pinwheel shape, using the parchment paper as support to help you roll.

Step 6

Once rolled, place the seam side down on the baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and cooked through.

Step 8

While the roll is cooking, mash the avocado in a bowl and mix in the lemon juice to make a simple guacamole.

Step 9

Allow the Bacon Roll to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 10

Serve the Bacon Roll slices with a dollop of fresh guacamole on top or on the side.
