Sometimes, i can't get enough of seasonal cerry tomatoes. I'm tempted by its vibrant red color and amazing flavor, especially if they've been picked at their peak. Ripe tomatoes steal the show in a bacon, lettuce, and sandwich. For a healthier twist on some traditional recipes, try this Chopped Salad recipe. Lime vinaigrette drizzled over bacon, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and the unexpected avocado, corn kernels, plus crumbled goat cheese combine to create the most delicious salad topping I've ever tasted.
INGREDIENTS:
4 slices Bacon, diced
4 cups chopped lettuce
1 avocado, halved, seeded, peeled and diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ cup corn kernels
¼ cup crumbled goat cheese
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
2 tbsps freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tsps sugar, or more to taste
For the lime vinaigrette
Zest of 1 lime
DIRECTIONS:
1. To make the vinaigrette, mix olive oil, vinegar, apple cider, lemon zest and juice and sugar in a small bowl; aside.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
3. In a bowl, combine romaine lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, corn, goat cheese and bacon. Stir in lime vinaigrette.
4. Serve immediately.
