Ingredients
1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
16 grape tomatoes, halved
½ cup fresh avocado, diced
¼ cup reduced-fat blue cheese, crumbled
Lemon vinaigrette (store-bought or homemade)
Directions
If preparing bacon from raw, cook until crispy (about 8–10 minutes), then drain on paper towels and crumble once cool. Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and divide evenly among 4 serving plates.
Arrange the chopped romaine as the base on each plate. Top each portion with 1 crumbled bacon slice, 8 grape tomato halves, 2 tablespoons of diced avocado, and 1 tablespoon of crumbled blue cheese.
Drizzle each salad with lemon vinaigrette to taste, toss gently if desired, and serve immediately.
