Description
Ripe avocados are filled with crispy bacon bits, homemade bacon fat croutons, tomatoes, and romaine. It’s one big happy family of flavor.
From Joanne Ozug of Fifteen Spatulas.
Ingredients
- 4 strips Thick Cut Bacon
- 1 cup Fresh Bread Cubes (Sourdough, Or Other Crusty Bread)
- 1 cup Chopped Tomatoes
- 1 cup Loosely Packed Chopped Romaine Lettuce
- 2 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 3 To 4 Large Ripe Avocados
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
Preparation
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips for about 5 minutes on each side until crispy. Remove the bacon to a paper towel lined plate, then add the bread cubes to the bacon fat. Cook for about 5 minutes until the bread cubes are golden brown and crispy.
Chop the crispy bacon into small pieces, then place in a bowl with the croutons, tomatoes, and romaine. Stir to coat with the mayonnaise, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Cut the avocados in half, and remove the pits. Sprinkle the tops with salt. Place spoonfuls of the BLT mixture into each avocado, then serve. Enjoy!
