Simple BLT -Avocado salad recipe
I have to tell you when I tested this recipe for the first time, the costs for eggs were not so crazy – so you can totally drop it out if eggs are not in your budget at the moment. The real star of the show is “Bacon Two Ways” when it comes to this BLT Kale salad!
They have crispy bacon pieces and a warm, spicy vinaigrette made of bacon drops, which tastes rich and almost decadent. The combination of salty bacon, creamy avocado, juicy tomatoes and this powerful vinegar dressing makes it almost impossible to stop in a bowl. It’s like your favorite dinner BLT (or sheet … also known as bacon, salad, avocadoAnd tomato-yes, that’s one thing that some restaurants say!) To a hearty, well-being salad.

** I cooked from A Bavarian bacon When I started making this recipe to prepare the meal for the week easier, but I found 2 stripes cooked bacon per salad be the perfect amount.
***½ of a red onion result ½ cup of finely diced onion For me. I used ¼ cup of total for this recipe. I put the rest in the fridge to use later in another recipe!
**** I had to be used in the end 1/8 cup of olive oil In addition to my rendered bacon fat. The results of the bacon fat vary depending on the bacon you use.

How to take step-by-step photos from BLT Avocado Brunch Salad
Collect all of your ingredients. Soft-Boil 4 eggs, if you haven’t done it yet, then peel them carefully to remove the shells.
Prepare the kale: Remove the kale leaves from the hard stems. I like pulling the leaves away by hand – simply snap the base of the stem with one hand and run up the stem with the other. Now separate the kale into bite -sized pieces and wash them well (you need a total of about 5 cups). Dab dry or remove a salad pin to remove the excess water.
Cook the bacon: Use our oven method to cook 6 bacon slices until you are perfectly crispy. Reserve up to a cup of bacon fat for the vinaigrette by putting it in a small bowl.
Prepare the salad topping: Chop the crispy cooked bacon, 1 avocado with cubes 1, 1 cup of grapes cut in half and dice the red onion very finely (you need ¼ cup of finely diced red onion, which was about ¼ ¼ red onion during the test).
Make the bacon vinaigrette: Pour the rendered bacon fat into a measuring cup (you need a total of ¼ cup. However, if your bacon does not produce enough fat, you can tower it out with olive oil to reach ¼ cup). Put ¼ cup of apple cider vinegar, ¼ cup of finely diced red onion, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ tsp black pepper in a small bowl. Follow together and slowly flock into the bacon fat/oil mixture while continuously whisking to create a temporary emulsion.
Tighten the salad: Put the washed and dried kale leaves in a large bowl. Pour the bacon vinaigrette over the top and massage your hands into the kale. Do this until the leaves become more delicate and turn a lively green.
Make the salads: Share the dressed kale into 4 shells. Top every kale bed with the chopped bacon, the diced avocado, halved plum tomatoes and, when they have seasoned additional red onion. End and serve with one or two cranks and pepper!
- Massage this kale! Don’t skip this step – faithful to me. Massage the kale with the warm bacon vinaigrette the leaves, make it easier to digest them, and reduce the bitterness that may change how you feel via raw cabbage forever. It is one of these little tricks that make a big difference.
- Not a fan of soft cooker eggs? Get totally. Instead, you can exchange hard -boiled eggs. I like to use my air fryer to make hard -boiled eggs. It’s really easy and they peel like a dream.
- Make it a meal. This BLT salad is quite hearty, but if you want to stretch it for lunch or dinner, stir cooked and cooled pasta to make a BLT pasta salad. I love to use short forms like Rotini, Penne or Orzo because they catch the vinaigrette so well. For additional protein into the remaining chicken breast, crispy tofu or crispy air fried chickpeas.
How to store
Keep every part of the salad in his own container in the fridge to taste everything fresh. I like to wait and chop the avocado until shortly before serving, as it quickly brown as soon as it is cut. Soft eggs are best used within 2 days. The rest of the salad, including the massaged kale (which is a little more soft over time), remains good for 3 to 4 days. If you keep the bacon vinaigrette for yourself, simply give it a quick zap in the microwave (approx. 10 to 15 seconds) to melt the bacon fat and make it easy to stir together again.
