The Best BLT Salad

· · ·

I love a good salad. I also love a BLT Sandwich but I’m trying to eat more consciously which means less bread for me. I love bread, it’s a comfort food for me. But bread does not like me, well it does like me… A LOT… and it wants to stick around. So in an effort to eat better I’m upping my salad game and enjoying all the vegetables I can possibly eat in one single day.

I recently discovered Trader Joe’s cooked uncured bacon and it’s a life changer. I like the idea of adding bacon to dishes but I usually don’t want to cook 1 slice of bacon just for my salad or sandwich. Sometimes I think, I’ll just save some of my breakfast bacon to use later…. HA HA HA HA. Who saves breakfast bacons? Is that even possible? So thank you Jesus for packaged pre-cooked bacon.

The rest of the ingredients came from my produce box delivery, with exception to the cheese. This salad has bibb lettuce, tomato, cucumber, carrots, bacon and feta cheese. I like honey mustard dressing but you can use any dressing you like. It’s delicious and filling, perfect for lunch or dinner.

    So last week was triples at Harris Teeter and it took everything in me to make it to the store and actually have my stuff together.

  • ABCT Sandwich

    We eat lunch at home every day and sometimes PB&J or Turkey Sandwiches get a little old so I’m always trying new recipes that are quick and easy. I love grilled cheese but it always seems a little less than impressive so I tried to jazz it up and hence created the ABCT sandwich.  What…

    Mushroom Risotto

    Risotto sounds intimidating but it’s actually pretty easy to make, and totally delicious. The first time Joe attempted to make risotto he had the heat too low and it took about 4 hours to make, it tasted great but no one wants to stir rice for 4 hours. Finally he perfected his technique and it…
